Libraries Love Lakes! @ Meshanticut State Park
July is Lakes Appreciation Month! Join the Cranston Public Library and the Pawtuxet River Authority at Meshanticut State Park for a pop-up library event. We'll have books for all ages available to check-out, library card signup, storytime and crafts, and a walk around Meshanticut Lake. Learn about the work Pawtuxet River Authority is doing in our community to keep water clean, and enjoy a lovely day outside with the Cranston Public Library!
This drop-in event is free and open to the public. Please contact the Central Library Reference Desk with any questions at central@cranstonlibrary.org or 401-943-9080 x3.
The Pawtuxet River Authority and Watershed Council works to improve the Pawtuxet River and its extended system of ponds and streams for both preservation of the environment and quality of life in Rhode Island. The Pawtuxet River is the largest river in Rhode Island beginning and ending within the state's boundaries. Its dammed North Branch, the Scituate Reservoir, provides 65% of Rhode Island's drinking water and emits the most pristine fresh river water in the state. Learn more at http://www.pawtuxet.org.
