GC Library Offers Three Special Programs in January
The Garland County Library, per usual, is having a busy month of educational and entertaining (and frequently both at once!) programming this January.
Highlights include the Winter Watching Program, a presentation on Elder Law, and The History of Hiking in Hot Springs.
The Winter Watching Program lasts the entirety of January, ending on Monday, February 4th. Patrons who check out DVDs or Blu-Rays from the library will be rewarded with a raffle slip for every one checked out. These slips can be distributed upon return among the potential prizes of their choice, which include movie passes, gift cards, tech devices, and more.
Patrons can check out up to 15 DVDs and 5 Blu-Rays at a time, so an avid film aficionado could theoretically have hundreds of entries by the time the program ends.
On Thursday, January 17th, at 5:30pm, acclaimed Arkansas attorney, Ashley Stepps, will provide vital information to seniors and their families at the Elder Law Presentation & Q&A.
Topics include proper procedure on wills and other documents, estates and assets, and senior rights. This will be of great benefit to anybody with questions and concerns.
On Thursday, January 24th at 6:00pm, former National Park Ranger, Jeff Heitzman, will discuss the fascinating History of Hiking in Hot Springs. This presentation includes historic props, period costume, and tons of facts about the Spa City’s earliest health-seeking hikers.
