Taylor's Grove

Join us at the Wells Public Library on Tuesday, May 22 at 6:30 p.m. when veteran country music performer Mac McHale and old-time gospel singer Carolyn Hutton bring a bit of the North and South together in a duo called "Taylor's Grove." Taking the name from the little North Carolina church where Carolyn grew up singing with her family, Mac and Carolyn perform together simple old-fashioned American music that reaches across barriers of place and generation. With guitar, mandolin, banjo and harmony singing, they bring together songs Mac learned from country radio in the 30's and 40’s and songs Carolyn heard in the North Carolina Piedmont. Come spend and evening with Mac and Carolyn. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Wells Public Library. For more information please contact the library at 646-8181. Registration is not required.


You, Storms and Our Beaches

Do you love the beach? Find out what's happening, what is being done to study the changes and how you can get involved. Learn to recognize severe thunderstorms – just in time for the outdoor sports season. John Cannon of the National Weather Service in Gray will show graphical images of the local effects of damaging storms and explain the types of storms causing these hazards. Learn about the programs that involve interested residents in reporting weather events year-round. Then Jacob Aman of Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve will discuss efforts to track these changes to our beaches. He will provide current statistical data showing how much our beaches have changed. This program is free to the public and will take place on Tuesday, May 29th from 6-7:45, no registration required. Presented in coordination with Adult Ed.
