MEETEETSE
LABOR DAY RODEO
MEETEETSE RODEO GOT CHANGE PROGRAM
The Meeteetse Rodeo committee is asking the community for
assistance for the Labor Day Rodeo. We have regular sponsor

We would also like to give EVERYONE that reads this bulle-
tin an opportunity to gather your change or loose bills and be
a sponsor from $5 to $99, and have your name in the rodeo
program. So clean out those pants pockets, car and couch
seats and lets make this 109th Labor Day Rodeo one for the
records! Yee-Haw!

MEETEETSE LIBRARY STARTS NEW
PROGRAMS!
Meeteetse Library will be CLOSED for Labor Day – Saturday, Sept. 4 and Monday, Sept. 6. Get your
books and movies early for the weekend, and have a Great Holiday!
Many Thanks to all who came out for Taste of Meeteetse and stopped by the Library Table for a Taste
of “Crow Stew”! We had a lot of fun with it! (And then we found out we won a prize – even more fun!)
And remember, if you need to make your own pot of Crow Stew, or something equally unique, we’re
sure to have just the book for you!
Starting after Labor Day the Library will have an Elementary Kids Activity every Monday after school.
We’ll do crafts, board games, Legos and a movie every now and then.
Wednesday afternoons after Labor Day will be Wii Wednesday for Middle School and High School.
Toddler Storytime continues on Thursdays at 10:00 am. Fun stories, songs and activities for those not
in school yet.
The Library plans to have a Float in the Labor Day parade. I am looking for 3-4 kids who would like to
ride on our float. Qualifications are: Can be here Labor Day at 9:00 am, Have Parent/Guardian Permis-
sion, and, most importantly, Can Smile, Wave and Throw Candy! Contact Miss Linda at the Library if in-
terested.
I also need to borrow a trailer for our float (mine has a “too bad to get to town” bad tire). If you’ve got one
we could turn into a parade float for a few hours on Labor Day let me know – Please & Thank You! Linda
The next Coffee Talk will be Tuesday, September 14 at 10:00 am. The Meeteetse School admin-
istration team will be our guests. Come and hear how school is shaping up this year – the challenges
and the opportunities!
Park County Library System has one more option for you to find eBooks, digital audio books and
now magazines too! – Use Libby by Overdrive. On your computer or on your mobile device find and
download the Libby app (it’s sometimes called Libby by Overdrive). Select Park County Library System
as your library. Enter your card number and PIN. If you run into any difficulties call or come by the library
and we’ll help you get going.
Did you know … a Library Card gives you access to eBooks, audiobooks, digital music, magazines and
streaming movies? And they are all for free! If you haven’t signed up for your card yet or don’t know how
to get to the digital resources stop in and see us. We can
help!CLASSIFIEDS
