MILFORD —  Stop by Milford Public Library and sign up for the Adult Reading Club. The library will have weekly drawings for a prize through March 30. If you are 18 years of age or older, you can sign up. For each book you read or e-book or audio book you listen to, you can drop a drawing slip in the container on the desk. Each week the library staff will draw a name at 6 p.m. Friday. That person will be invited to come in and spin the “Wheel of Adventure” to determine their prize.

Next week is the first week of Winter Story Time. Children ages 3-6 are invited to come and bring a friend. The theme is “Let’s Hibernate!” Do you hibernate? Can you name some animals that hibernate? Listen to “Time to Sleep” by Denise Fleming and some other stories. Make a paper bag bear craft puppet and enjoy the snack of Teddy Grams.

Story time is at 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Wednesday..
