The library’s Movies for Grownups is scheduled on the last Tuesday of
each month. We will show a popular, recently released DVD movie on
our 90” movie screen, with a discussion to follow. Come to the library
to see The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, the hit sequel movie to
the 2012 film, on Tuesday, July 28: 6:00-8:30pm. Most of the original
cast is back including Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, Dev Patel, and Maggie
Smith with the addition of Richard Gere! See your favorite characters
again in this rich British comedy-drama! Please register in advance
by calling 928-632-5049. Refreshments will be served.
The library has a weekly activity, US Fans of UK Entertainment, on
Saturdays: 10:00am - Noon. The group’s goal is to enjoy, share, and
discuss British entertainment. In June, the group will continue to
take a trip back in time by viewing and discussing classic Doctor
Who stories from the 1980’s. We will wrap up the 7th Doctor’s
(Sylvester McCoy’s) era with his last story from 1989 and then we
will examine the American/UK co-venture of the 1996 TV film starring
Paul McGann, Daphne Asbrook, Eric Roberts, and Sylvester McCoy.
Take a nostalgic spin with us with this time traveling cult hit. We will
have refreshments on hand! For more information, please stop in or
call 928-632-5049.
The library’s Book Discussion Group will have its monthly meeting on
a Tuesday, July 14: 9:30 – 10:45am. The group is reading Behind the
Beautiful Forevers by the Pulitzer Prize winning author Katherine Boo,
for this month. This non-fiction book is the story of families striving
toward a better life in Annawadi, a makeshift settlement near the
Mumbai airport in India. The author spent three years studying and
researching the people in the settlement to write this breathtaking
book. The library has copies of the book available for checkout. So,
come in to the library to pick up a copy of the book, and then come
for the discussion. Light refreshments will be provided for this fun
and lively event.

setting up a regular exercise routine, you begin getting the
feeling of taking control of your life and doing something
beneficial for yourself. This feeling of control helps battle
the feelings of helplessness. As you start to get into shape
you begin to realize that you can change your existing
situation if you just apply yourself and make positive
changes. Group exercise classes such as Zumba, Qigong,
and Aerobic classes also help by adding the social factor of
doing positive things with other people. Many people
withdraw from society when they get depressed where
group exercises help integrate people into fun aspects of
life rather than the depressing aspects of life. Getting your
daily dose of exercise is almost like taking your daily
medications. After a while you will begin to look forward
to your exercise and will feel and see the positive effects it
has on your life.
