Fishers Parks & Rec. Celebrates Fathers with Special Program
Let’s face it, finding a gift for the world’s best dad, or father figure, can be really difficult! Instead of buying another neck tie, consider creating a gift he’ll cherish for years to come. Join Fishers Parks & Recreation for Father’s Day Pottery on Saturday, June 11 from 1 to 2 p.m. During this program, your child ages 2 through 10 can turn their hand into a paint brush as they create the perfect hand-print coffee mug!
All supplies are provided during this program and finished mugs will be available a week after the program, just in time to be wrapped and delivered. After children have the opportunity to create their mug, the entire group will enjoy reading, “Daddy’s Are For Catching Fireflies.” Father’s Day Pottery costs $15 for residents and $23 for nonresidents, and registration can be completed online, today!

Movies are free to attend and families are encouraged to pack a sweatshirt, roll out a blanket and stop by concessions to purchase a few movies snacks. The City of Fishers G.I.V.E. Committee will work concessions, weekly to ensure you have something sweet and salty to enjoy during the show. Each movie is presented in closed captioning, and movies have different ratings.

Popular Summer Reading Program Returns To Library
From June 1 through July 31, the popular Summer Reading Program will return to the Hamilton East Public Library. Each year, thousands of readers - infants, youth, teens and adults - participate in this special program. Prizes are awarded to participants who complete the requirements for their specific age category and may include coupons to area restaurants or attractions, gift cards, books and more. Beginning May 1, readers of all ages can register online at hepl.lib.in.us or by visiting the Noblesville Library or Fishers Library! Then on June 1, it’s time to start logging the number of pages you’ve read!
Highlighting this year’s Summer under the Stars – Celebrating 200 Summers in Indiana theme, the library has planned numerous programs and adventures. Start exploring the rich history of your community through a countywide passport program developed by the five library systems across the county and Hamilton Tourism. Learn something new and collect a stamp for each location you visit.
At both the Fishers Library and Noblesville Libraries, the entire family can enjoy a wide variety of programs, many highlighting all the things that make Indiana special – the state fair, monarch butterflies, birds, gardens, camp outs, and more! Professor Steve will amuse and delight on June 9 at the Noblesville Library as he presents the Science of Basketball. Learn more about Hoosier critters as Animali’s Indiana Animals brings a red-tailed hawk, opossum, raccoon, skunk and map turtle for you to experience at the Fishers Library on June 9 and then the Noblesville Library on July 28. On July 29, you won’t want to miss Summer Reading Program finale events at both library buildings.
For a full listing and specific details about the library’s programs, visit their calendar of events at hepl.lib.in.us.
State Park Passes Now Available for Loan from the Library
With temperatures finally on the rise, thoughts are turning to the great outdoors and exploring all that Indiana has to offer. In honor of the state’s bicentennial, the Indiana State Library has now provided each library with a state park pass for loan to library cardholders.
When you are ready to hit the trail, simply stop by the Adult Services desk at either the Fishers or Noblesville Library and check for availability. Due to high demand, the passes will be available on a first come, first served basis, with no holds or renewals available. Passes can be checked out for up to 7 days.
Like other library materials, if passes are returned after the due date, late fees will apply. If passes are lost, a full replacement cost will be assessed. For further information, check out the library’s website at www.hepl.lib.in.us.
