When kids think of healthy food, a single word usually comes to mind: YUCK!  But, just because certain foods are good for us doesn't mean they have to taste like cardboard!

Join Muscle Mike and Soccer Sue on Thursday, December 13th at 4:30 pm as they teach us about “good foods that are good for us."  We'll have a great time learning and tasting foods that taste great, fuel us up, and make us feel like a million bucks!  We'll need that fuel too, as we get our heart rates going with a little light, fun exercise that children can do everyday to ensure they’re healthy for the rest of their lives!

This program is open to children (ages 3-8) and their families.  You may register for this program by clicking here.

A Sense of Justice with a Sense of Humor: Author John W. Hartmann @ Warren

On Thursday, December 6 at 7 pm, the Warren Twp Library will host Trenton attorney and former state assemblyman, John W. Hartmann who has written an engaging, humorous and most unusual memoir called “Jacket”, where he dishes out amusing anecdotes from his life in law and politics. Through Hartmann’s irreverent humor, he puts a human face on the dysfunctional New Jersey justice system. Hartmann’s self-deprecating wit and keen eye for all things absurd and ironic makes “Jacket” a compelling read for “Law and Order” fans. The prestigious Kirkus Review praised “Jacket” saying: "[Hartmann's] reflections are entertainingly scattershot, nimbly jumping from one impossibly absurd scenario to another, capturing the surreal wheels of justice in motion. A keen, lighthearted look at the human side of law".

Pre-registration is required to attend this free program. To register online please go to http://bit.ly/Q8yYDW. Patrons with further questions may call 908-754-5554 ext 64 or visit our website www.sclsnj.org. The Warren Twp Library, located at 42 Mountain Boulevard, Warren, is a branch of the Somerset County Library System. The Somerset County Library System has branches in Bridgewater, Bound Brook, Hillsborough, Manville, at the Mary Jacobs Library in Rocky Hill, North Plainfield, Peapack & Gladstone, Somerville, Warren Twp and Watchung.
