District 46 Board Meeting, Health Insurance 101 Class This Week

Are you looking for something to do this week? 

Maybe you want to check out the Health Insurance 101 program that the Grayslake Park District is hosting. Or perhaps you want to learn about banned books at the library.

Whatever you decide to do, have a great week!

Banned Books Week

Sept. 22-28 is Banned Books Week. According to the Grayslake Area Public Library, Banned Books Week started in 1982 and since then, more than 11,300 books have been challenged. Some of those titles have included Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James and The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. Teens and adults at the Grayslake Library who read or listen to a book from the library's banned book display this week will be entered into a drawing to win a $25 gift certificate to one of several businesses.
