John Hughes, Recruiting Assistant for the 2020 census, will present more in-depth information about what census jobs will be available.
Even though the Census is incredibly important, not many people really have a good idea about what it is or what census jobs entail. John Hughes, Recruiting Assistant for the 2020 census, will be at the Pember to share information and clear some misconceptions about what exactly the census is and what a census worker does. He will talk to people about the census and the jobs they are currently hiring for.

What would you call a roomful of art dioramas made of dressed up marshmallows and cardboard? We’re calling it the First Annual Pember Peeps Contest and it’s happening on Friday, May 3 for First Friday at The Pember Library and Museum in Granville, NY.
There are a dozen creations already submitted by members of the community, and more coming in daily. Peeps artists will be competing for the “PEEPle’s Choice” Award along with a twenty five dollar gift certificate for Edwards Market. A ballot box will be available for the public to cast their votes. To name a few of the themes: Peeper Museum, Story time with Miss Peeps and Peep-pei.
“Peeps art is very popular nationwide, and it’s really amazing how ordinary marshmallow figures get sculpted, dressed, back dropped and creatively arranged to express a theme,” said Ardyce Bresett, Pember Library Director. “It is family-friendly fun for all ages. Be sure to mark your calendar. Power to the Peeps…”
First Friday is May 3, from 7 to 9 pm and is a free event. A music play list will be provided.
We all have those crafts we thought we’d love and bought all the supplies for, then discovered it wasn’t as much fun as we thought it would be.
Just some of the wonderful items that have been donated!
