There will be a lice limiting power point presentation, too, to give families skills on how to reduce the risk of contracting the nasty parasites! Pharamasave in Golden Lake will be present to have pharma advice as well, should you have to deal with them!

Parents and children will also have the opportunity to create an ICE (In Case of Emergency) bracelet containing a contact number. Having your child's name on garments is stranger danger-ous!

We're always looking for donations for the pantry. Some suggestions include: dried, packaged food such as cup of soups, tea/hot chocolate/coffee, porridge, dried fruit, cakes and granola bars. Toiletries like toothbrushes, soap and deodorant are great, too. Bottles of water and freeze pops are other ways to fill the pantry during the summer months. Donations can be put directly into the pantry 24/7 or dropped-off inside the library during operating hours. And please remember, the pantry is accessible to everyone, 24/7.

Every Wednesday, BUPL is the satellite office for The Women's Sexual Assault Centre of Renfrew County. If you or someone you know is in need of support services, please don't hesitate to contact BUPL or Jancy Brown direct at email Jancey Brown directly.
