The Blaine County Library will be closed Monday December 26th in observance of Christmas and Monday January 2nd in observance of New Year’s Day. We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

We would like to thank everyone who came to our Hassle-Free Christmas. It was great to see a nice turnout and support for our local vendors. Thank you to the vendors who were set up in the meeting room and the Senior Center and to the Blaine County Library Board members for preparing and serving food. A special thanks to Ben and Patty Hall for all the help setting up and cleaning up the meeting room and Senior Center. Lois Butcher and Jill Paulsen were the winners of our door prizes.
