Don’t let the price tags of Halloween costumes scare you – swap instead of shop! Donate a clean, gently used children’s costume at the Youth Services Desk between September 1-22 and receive a ticket to get a “new-to-you” costume at the swap on September 29. Donations do not guarantee finding a new costume.
Don’t have a library card? National Library Card Sign-up Month is the perfect time to get one! This September get a chance to win prizes by signing up for your first Grayslake Library Card or checking out items with your existing card all month long!
