2nd Meeting of Bug Club at the Animas Valley Grange Please join the The Animas Valley Grange ‘Bug Club’ for the second meeting on Saturday, July 19, 1-3 pm. The purpose of the club is to encourage curiosity and learning about insects and other arthropods in our local environment. We use non-lethal capture and observation techniques to study insects and other arthropods, eventually learning how to tell beneficial insects from pests and the habitats they favor. We will be using a phone app to photograph, record and identify insects. The Bug Club is free and open to all. Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult. Meet at the Animas Valley Grange, 7271 County Road 203, about 1 mile north of Durango Hot Springs. Closed shoes and appropriate outdoor clothing are recommended.

Durango Public Library 1900 E 3rd Avenue Durango, CO 81301 Phone: 970-375-3380 https://www.durangoco.gov/Library FREE August 14, 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.: Around the World not Counting Days: A Travelogue: Join local author John Kessell as he recounts his 1958 ocean liner trip from San Francisco to Sydney, Australia and the adventures along the way. John had no idea what sailing on an ocean liner from San Francisco to Sydney might be like. Those were still the days when people took a boat to get somewhere, not just an over-hyped “cruise” on a floating amusement park. So let’s step back sixty-five years, retrofit our passports, and join John on a boat to somewhere!
