The Grays River Valley Library and Computer Center hours have changed. The new hours will be Mondays from 3-7 p.m. and Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 1-5 p.m.

Our library/computer center is free to everyone in the community and is manned by volunteers. Come on in and meet our volunteers, check out all the fiction, non-fiction and reference books as well as audio books, movies, children’s section and free internet access. You might even like it enough that you will want to volunteer a couple of hours each week.

Lunches are served three days a week at the Rosburg Hall to our senior citizens. The Wednesday Senior Lunch Bunch meets at noon on Wednesdays for a nutritious meal prepared and served by Pat Potter and her volunteer crew. On Tuesdays and Thursdays lunches are served and are sponsored by CAP. We are very fortunate in this community to have wholesome meals for our seniors.
