Upcoming Events
Parker's Pumpkins Story Time + Meet the Author!
“When Parker and Grandma plant a big seed, it grows much faster than they expected! As the vine begins to take over the house, they have to make some creative decisions that lead to humorous outcomes and a community event.
Parker's Pumpkin depicts the special bond between a grandma and grandson who enjoy a shared interest, and readers will learn all about the joys and challenges of gardening.”
Join us on November 6th for a special reading by the Author of Parker’s Pumpkins! Ms. Jean will be bringing her own recipe for pumpkin muffins that guests get to try at Story Time. After the reading there will be a pumpkin craft available.

What is a Community Baby Shower?
A community baby shower celebrates and serves new/expecting parents and families with young children by providing education, support, supplies, and resources to help give a strong start to parenthood. Investing Early hosted the first community baby shower in Manitowoc County in 2023 to reconnect with families who missed out on community resources during the 3 years of the COVID-19 pandemic.
