Coffee! At the library?!



CARIBOU COFFEE AT THE ARMADA LIBRARY



Kipp, manager at the "Caribou Coffee" on 26 Mile Rd
put on an excellent program Tuesday, April 17th.



Kipp began his presentation with a book on where coffee beans come
from and what they look like. The red berries surprised many and
everyone learned how they are harvested and processed.


As Kipp explained each of the brewing methods, everyone waited patiently to taste and compare how these methods changed the flavor of the coffee.  



Everyone had a great time tasting, and talking coffee with Kipp.

                         Thanks to all who were able to attend.
  Events like this are free, to you the public and to the library, so we are
            always thrilled when people come out to enjoy them.  
Kipp had a great time and is looking forward to being invited out again.
               Be sure to stop in and see Kipp at "Caribou Coffee" 
                         at the 26 Mile Rd and M 53 location.

Magician Jason Hudy returns to the library!

Jason started off simple enough...

He had everyone in stitches!

George got a french dog- named "pee-air"

Talking toilet paper left Karley wondering

Chico the mind reader had his tail "pulled" off



Can you believe we colored that book together?

Saga wasn't having any of that : )

Oh no! That was his favorite wand! oops!
What? 

Everyone take your favorite color balloon..


Twenty-three children along with parents and 
grandparents alike enjoyed the comedic 
magician Saturday. (and everyone took 
home a balloon animal of their choice)

He left everyone wondering, 
"How did he do that?"

Jason began his career upon seeing a magician 
at his library perform when he was 9 years old. 
He picked up a library book and began his study
of the craft and the rest they say is "history".
