Dancing to Sticks-n-Tones
Residents of all ages attended the Northfield Public Library's latest Books and Stars event at Spring Creek Park.
Kids, as well as some parents, danced to the rock-and-roll music of Sticks-n-Tones during this past Wednesday’s Books and Stars event at Spring Creek Park.
On most Wednesdays during the summer, the Northfield Public Library conducts the music and literacy event at parks around Northfield.
Each Books and Stars event features a performer who focuses on entertainment for children. The library’s bookmobile, Booker, is on site for concert-goers to check out library materials.
