Congrats to YFS!

Congratulations to YFS for their nomination for the 2021 WLA Programming Innovation Award! We all know what an amazing job the YFS team did responding to the pandemic, especially the KPL Kids to Go boxes. Heather reports that from June 2020 to August 2021, the YFS team put together 6,456 to go boxes. That's a lot of community joy! Thanks to you all!

Thanks to Outreach for attending United Way's Born to Read Trail ribbon cutting at Columbus Park this week! The kids were thrilled to see you!


The remediation of the broken sewer pipe issue at Uptown continues on Monday. There may be an interruption of service to the upstairs public toilet. 

Welcome to Ben and Joel, our 2 new RTG's! 

Did you know that Martha is a photographer? A talented one, too. Her art show opens next week at the Racine Art Museum. Congratulations, Martha!

Don't forget about Thanksgiving in September on September 23rd. More details to come.

A lot of people are on vacation this coming week. Here are a few to note:

Dan is off all week- please contact Jason in his absence.
Michelle is out all week
Linda and Sandy are out Thursday and Friday
Rob is out Monday

I am out September 1-8 (Wednesday to Wednesday) . I will be in the area and available for emergencies- please call if you need me.


Enjoy the summer weekend, everyone!
