"Best Folk Artist You've Never Heard Of" says Kim Ruehl of about.com in 2006.

Spook's songs range from spiritual to songs about social responsibility, sometimes blatant, sometimes covert and are full of fictitious and real characters that have walked through his life.

"The lyrical wit of John Prine, the humor of Arlo Guthrie, the sincerity of John Denver, the boldness of Bob Dylan & the courage of Pete Seeger..."  An event you won't want to miss!

Performing at MARSHALL PUBLIC LIBRARY  113 S. Garfield Ave., Pocatello, ID on Sept. 24, 2009 @ 4:30pm and again at Senang's  that evening at 7:30pm.  These concerts are FREE!

News from Marshall Public Library!

The Adult Summer Library BINGO Challenge is coming to an end on August 15.

This challenge was not just reading books. The challenges included tasks like returning materials on time, posting a comment on the library’s blog, and even checking out a new book.

 

Each square on the bingo card had a different challenge. As with regular Bingo, participants had to complete five challenges in a row for Bingo. A completed Bingo earned an entry in the prize drawing. A Blackout, all five rows completed, earned five additional entries in the drawing. The library would like to thank the local businesses who made prizes possible for the drawing. Prizes include donations from: Mystique Theater, Sandpiper, Perkins, Mama Inez, and Town and Country Gardens.

 

If you missed out on registration this year watch for next summer’s Adult Summer Challenge at the Marshall Public Library in Pocatello along with summer reading programs for children and teens.

Any questions?  Call Becky @ 232-1263 or visit us at 113 S. Garfield Ave., Pocatello, ID.

Library Helping Soldiers Call Home

 

Marshall Public Library is pleased to announce that they are now a drop off point for Cell Phones for Soldiers. 

 

When you bring in your used cell phones the phones are recycled for cash and the proceeds are used to buy prepaid calling cards for our soldiers serving abroad.  Cell Phones For Soldiers is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. 

 

Cell Phones for Soldiers was created by Brittany & Robbie Bergquist of Norwell MA.  After reading a story about a soldier who ran up a huge phone bill calling home from Iraq, these teenagers decided to help out.  They started by opening an account with $21.00 of their own money.  Then they began collecting cash donations and old cell phones.  Their goal is to provide every US soldier with a way to call home free.  For more information, please visit www.cellphonesforsoldiers.com

 

The phones are sent to ReCellular, which pays Cell Phones for Soldiers for each donated phone – enough to provide an hour of talk time to soldiers abroad.

 

Approximately half of the phones ReCellular processes are reconditioned and resold to wholesale companies in over 40 countries around the world. Phones and components that cannot be refurbished are dismantled and recycled to reclaim materials, including:

• Gold, silver and platinum from circuit boards
• Copper wiring from phone chargers
• Nickel, iron, cadmium and lead from battery packs
• Plastic from phone cases and accessories

 (Pease note, we have no ending date for collecting phones.  We will continue to be a drop-off point until further notice)

Support the troops and help them call home by donating your used cell phones at the Marshall Public Library.
