Thursday, July 9th at 3:30 PM, parents are encouraged to bring young children to a gun safety event at the Lake Placid Memorial Library. The Eddie Eagle GunSafe Program, which is offered by the National Rifle Association (NRA), will be facilitated by Kathy Sorenson, a local instructor who is also a retired teacher. Eddie Eagle himself is also rumored to be visiting. This event is part of the Highlands County Library System's Youth Summer Program.
This program was developed in 1988. It's purpose, according to NRA literature, is "to promote gun accident prevention for children in pre-K through 3rd grade by teaching a simple safety message so they know what to do should they come upon an unsecured firearm: STOP! Don't Touch. Leave the Area. Tell an Adult."
The program's materials are offered free of charge to the library system because of funding from the Friends of the NRA. Please call 699-3705 to reserve a seat as space restrictions permit only 30 children to attend.
Residents of Highlands County will consider libraries as the primary source for all their information needs. Library facilities will be modern, spacious and inviting with full capability to accommodate a variety of activies and services. Library staff will be well trained and capable of assistng library users in negotiating their way through the information network.
