STAYING CLOSE TO HOME THIS SUMMER?
Looking for some fun and interesting things to do?
 
The Grafton Public Library has on display a selection of books on places to go and things to do...and all in New England.  If you want to hike (with or without your dog); know where the 100 best biking roads and trails are; take some beautiful drives; go camping or fishing; or, find the best New England wineries and breweries -- then we have the books to help you.  Perhaps this summer you want to try something new.  How about a tour of the diners of New England, a tour of gardens open to the public, or a walking tour of Victorian buildings in Boston-- again we have the book for you.  Want some suggestions for things to do with children?  Need some quiet time on the water (lake or ocean)?  Do you just want to explore one of our neighboring New England states?  Or maybe you would like to check out some of the curious, and in some cases, weird places in Massachusetts?  You can find suggestions at your library to keep you busy all summer.
 
And don't forget the museum passes available at the Library for Grafton residents.  There are 11 different passes to museums in Worcester, Boston, Acton, Framingham, Boylston and Providence, RI.
 
Visit the Grafton Public Library and find a whole new world to explore...right in your own back yard!

Tower Hill Botanic Garden Passes -- Now Even Better!
The 2009-2010 Library passes to the Tower Hill Botanic Garden now offers free admission for 4 people per pass.  This is a big change from the 1 person per pass of recent years.
 
Every season of the year is lovely at Tower Hill, but spring and summer are prime times to see the gardens, take a walk, and have lunch at the cafe.
 
Call the Library (508-839-4649) today to make your reservation for the Tower Hill Botanic Garden pass.
 
And thank you to the Friends of the Grafton Library for generously providing the Library passes.
