Are you going outside?
May is National
Bike MonthThe library has a bunch of titles to help you on your way!
Memorial Dayis a federal holiday in the United States for remembering and honoring persons who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. The holiday, which is currently observed every year on the last Monday of May, was most recently held on May 28, 2018.
PoppiesIn 1915, following the Second Battle of Ypres, Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, a physician with the Canadian Expeditionary Force, wrote the poem, “In Flanders Fields”. Its opening lines refer to the fields of poppies that grew among the soldiers’ graves in Flanders. In 1918, inspired by the poem, YWCA worker Moina Michael attended a YWCA Overseas War Secretaries’ conference wearing a silk poppy pinned to her coat and distributed over two dozen more to others present. In 1920, the National American Legion adopted it as their official symbol of remembrance.
Library Coffeehouse is held on the first Friday of each month at 6 pm. This event features live music, refreshments, and a craft for kids. If you are interested in playing for us send an email to [email protected]

We will explore the settlement of Eagle Creek and the history of the surrounding communities during 1845-1900. Find out about current programs at the Philip Foster Farm.
Presenter Joanne Broadhurst, a native born Oregonian whose family dates to 1843 and 1853, is a great granddaughter of Josiah and Lucy Foster Burnett (Daughter to Philip and Mary Charlotte Foster). Family history was a common conversation during her early years, instilling a life-long interest in Oregon history. Ms. Broadhurst attended Eagle Creek grade school, Estacada High School, Oregon State College, and attained her CPA degree through Portland State University. Ms. Broadhurst is retired but still involved in the Philip Foster Farm.
