LAST WEEKEND IN PHOTOS. AN EXTRAVAGANZA THROUGH OUT TOWN.
LIBRARIAN BRANDY GOODWIN WELCOMES HARRY LOVERS, SPECTACLES EVERYWHERE
It was almost like a welcome home party for Brandy Goodwin, the new librarian at the Shepard-Pruden Memorial Library. This was Goodwin's first Extravaganza weekend as the Librarian. In previous years, she has worked the event as a visiting librarian from Plymouth Library in Washington County.
“I love creating events and projects for kids”, said Goodwin. “My sweet spot is for toddlers and babies”. Goodwin was at home this weekend, surrounded by children and adults enjoying the weekend long event.
The Library has special year round programs for children such as children story time and crafting activities.
The library is located at 106 West Water Street, Edenton and is open everyday but Sunday.

When admiring the delightful scenes around town and beyond that Mclaughlin beautifully captures, don't forget to check to see if any tickets are left for the New Orleans Gala on April 5.

Paul Kothe & Dwayne Hill offer 'Music in the Park' Saturdays beginning at 11:30
Last Saturday howling winds stopped many sailors from venturing out of the harbor, but the hefty breeze helped carry the sounds of Paul Kothe and Dwayne Hill across the park to the library. The wind didn't stop the crowd from gathering as you can hear in the background while Kothe & Hill warmed up with 'Return to Pooh Corner'. If you haven't had the opportunity to hear this duo you should really bring a chair and head for the park on Saturdays.
