Please Note: Registration for programs opens 2 weeks before it begins and closes 1 hour before they start. An email reminder goes out 1 hour before the program begins. Because space is limited and to cut down on the number of no-shows, we are enabling a policy that if you are a no-show and do not notify MFL staff, you will be removed from a future MFL program requiring registration. Please be mindful as many families would like to participate in our free programs!
Toys in the Children's Area will be packed away & hidden 10 minutes before story times begin as to get the area ready for literacy!
