Tails and Tales, the Mathews Memorial Library youth program, came to a conclusion on Thursday, July 29, with participants donning their matching “Tails and Tales” shirts. Participants have met twice weekly since July 6 at the Put-In Creek Pavilion, learning about the natural world they share with creatures large and small. Guest presenters included Jim Drummond, Stan Allen, Liz Hogge and Mary Stephen. Each child participant became a member of the Dr. Doolittle Club and accepted the challenge to be a custodian of the natural world. Shown, front from left, are Caden Cyhanick, Lilly Anderson, Brayden Westly, Elli Sowers, Vivian Hogge, Colton Hellebrant, Aries Easters, Liam Canose, Madison Ambrose, Gracie Hellebrant, Avery Hensley, Holley Slaughter, Brycen Pugh; back row, staff members Maude Donovan and Jackie Craven, Hunter and Hayden Owens, head of Youth Services Carol McCormack and staff member Carol Owens.
