Scarecrows!
October 2006

The library, along with Boyd County Public Library Friends and the Boyd County Extension Office, sponsored the community’s first-ever display of scarecrows. Individuals, groups and businesses were invited to build and decorate a scarecrow and bring it to the Main Branch. The scarecrows remained on display, inside and outside the library, from Oct. 16 to 31, 2006, during which time the public was invited to come look, vote on their favorite and participate in a silent auction. Our Teen Tuesdays bunch also got into the act -- click here to see their photos.

Note: You can view pictures (1) individually by selecting them from the drop-down menu at the left above, (2) page through them manually by pressing the >> or << arrow buttons or (3) view an automated slideshow by pressing the "Start" button. (On the slideshow, pictures appear about 10 seconds apart. And, note, the slideshow works best with a broadband connection; obviously, you're welcome to try the slideshow with dialup, but it may be sluggish in loading the images and, as a result, may get out of correct sequence.)
