			<description><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Only two weeks left until the Annual Frackville Pumpkin Festival! On Saturday, October 1, 2011 between 10AM&nbsp; and 2PM you&#39;ll find lots of autumn fun on Frack Street between Balliet and Lehigh. Pony rides, pumpkin crafts, music, lots of great food, and many contests with prizes provided by our local businesses. Join the scavenger hunt, write a pumpkin limerick, eat a pie very fast, enter your favorite pumpkin or squash recipe, or bid for a pumpkin art piece-you can do it all at the Pumpkin Festival. On Friday, September 30 at 5:30PM at the Schuylkill Mall, you can try your skill at Pumpkin&#39; Chunkin&#39;-throwing a pumpkin as far as you can in the parking lot to win Mall gift certificates. It promises to be a great weekend, so mark your calendar and plan to attend. Your friends and neighbors will be there-why not you too! Call the library for information about all activities at 874-3382. <P>

			<description><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On Saturday, July 30, 2011, the Frackville Recreation Board will be holding their Annual Christmas in July event at the Frackville Elks. This fun-filled evening will feature music by DJ Ed Collins, a local favorite and a light buffet. The real attraction of the event is the long list of great prizes donated by local merchants and Frackville supporters. Gift cards, cash, services, and great Yuengling items will be in the drawing. In addition to a chance to win the prizes, each ticket holder will also receive a collectible Yuengling beer glass. Tickets are $15.00 per person, and can be purchased at the library or from any Recreation Board member. Call 874-3382 for more information. Proceeds go to the Recreation Board to cover the cost of free community events such as the Christmas Parade. <P>

			<title>Art of the Pumpkin</title>
			<link>http://engagedpatrons.org/Blogs.cfm?SiteID=7590&amp;BlogID=126&amp;BlogPostID=9291</link>
			<description><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Once again the library is sponsoring its Art of the Pumpkin contest in conjunction with the Frackville Pumpkin Festival, being held September 30 and October 1, 2011. Wooden pumpkin blanks are being sold at the library for $10 each ($5 for students or adults over age 65). These blanks can be decorated in any medium-paint, paper, fabric-the possiblilities are endless. The finished art pieces will be displayed around town prior to the festival, and will be judged to determine a winner. Prizes will be announced soon. The pumpkins will then be awarded to the highest bidder in a Chinese auction. All procedes go to the library&#39;s general fund. So put on your creative thinking cap, and create a one-of-a-kind pumpkin for this unique contest. Entries must be returned to the library by Wednesday, September 21. <P>

			<title>One World, Many Stories</title>
			<link>http://engagedpatrons.org/Blogs.cfm?SiteID=7590&amp;BlogID=126&amp;BlogPostID=9071</link>
			<description><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#39;s only two weeks until the beginning of our Summer Reading Program for 2011. This year&#39;s theme, <em>One World, Many Stories</em>, will explore stories and cultural elements of many parts of the world including our own country and county. With <em>Away We Go</em> in June, we&#39;ll travel across the oceans to various foreign countries to&nbsp;get a taste of the language, music, and literature of other children. In July, <em>The Stories We Tell</em> will be those of our own United States, as we explore the history and diversity of our own multi-culture. In August we will finish with <em>How We Live</em>, a program dedicated to the Schuylkill County Bicentennial. Programs are open to children ages 4-8 years old and are held on one Tuesday evening each month. Programs feature stories, songs, craft projects and a light snack. See our calendar page for more details or to register.&nbsp;&nbsp; <P>

			<title>Today's Yesterdays</title>
			<link>http://engagedpatrons.org/Blogs.cfm?SiteID=7590&amp;BlogID=126&amp;BlogPostID=7558</link>
			<description><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hopefully all of you baby boomers that spent your weekends at Willow Lake will recognize the title of this record album. It is an extensive collection of the best known songs of our local celebrities, the Jordan Brothers. This group of brothers, born and raised right here in Frackville, rose&nbsp;to fame when they were just&nbsp;teens,&nbsp;hitting the road with their rock and roll band. &nbsp;Later this year, the Jordan Brothers will be honored with a memorial plaque at the Frackville Borough Building on South Center St. In celebration of the event, you can have your very own copy of <em>Today&#39;s Yesterdays</em>. CD&#39;s are now available for sale at the library, and the group has been kind enough to offer the library a share of the proceeds. The price of the CD, which contains 26 tracks including their famous rendition of <em>Heart,</em>&nbsp;is $25. Arrangements can also be made for the copies to be signed.  <P>
