Oxford Memorial Library to host ‘Oxford Memorial Library Rocks!’

OXFORD – In the spirit of brightening a stranger’s day and promoting community involvement, Oxford Memorial Library is proud to present “Oxford Memorial Library Rocks!” this Thursday evening, June 29 at 6 p.m.

Since the Facebook group ‘Chenango County Rocks!!!’ has taken the community by storm, many have seen an influx of painted or decorated rocks hidden throughout the county.

The premise is simple: find an ordinary rock, paint it or decorate it to make it extraordinary, and hide it somewhere to be stumbled on by a stranger. The rocks are then shared to the ‘Chenango County Rocks!!!’ Facebook page, where participants are often in awe at the creativity of one another and how far the rocks can travel.

Eager to join in on the fun, Oxford Memorial Library is hosting Thursday evening’s event to fit in with the library’s “Build a Better World” summer reading program.

Rocks and paint will be provided by the library, though participants are invited to bring their own if they would like.

Open to children and teenagers of all ages, the library is inviting participants to sign up for the “Build a Better World” summer reading program while painting rocks and socializing – a program, the library asserts, that will not interfere with any interested individuals’ other summer activities.

“It’s as simple as reading a book and writing it down,” says a release from the library. “No one is obligated to come to any programs by signing up, but we would love to see you there.”

If you have any questions, you may call the library at (607) 843-6146. You may also visit the Oxford Memorial Library or Oxford Memorial Library Youth Services Facebook pages, or www.oxfordmemoriallibrary.org.
