Summer, music, and throwbacks just seem to go hand in hand. It all started when someone at the Library asked: What song were you obsessed with when you were 10? And now we have a Post-it wall at the Library entrance with music and memories! Stop by or share your song here.
A wall covered with over 40 post-its with song names. There is a sign nearby asking "What song were you obsessed with at age 10?"
