Bugs, Bites and Things that We Wonder About in the Middle of the Night

It’s the time of year when we want to enjoy the outdoors and what it has to offer. Unfortunately there are a few things offered that we do not want.  Scott Schreiber, an epidemiologist from the Michigan Department of Community Health will discuss Lyme disease, West Nile Virus, blastomycosis.  Date and location:  6:30 p.m. Thursday, June 6 in the Mead Auditorium in the West Science Building (south entrance) on the NMU Campus.

Woodturning Demonstration

Woodturning as a craft/art form has been around for centuries. Find out how the wood is chosen, designed and the technique used to turn that piece of wood into a special creation. The Superior land Woodturners will demonstrate their craft as well as show some of their amazing works. Date and Location: 6:45 p.m. Tuesday, June 11, at the MAAC Workshop Room #3 in lower level of Peter White Public Library. Call 227-2979 to register in advance.

What are NCLL interest groups?

Initiated and managed by NCLL members, interest groups function independently of NCLL, but we want to encourage folks to get together around particular activities they enjoy.  On-going interest groups include Astronomy, Geocaching/GPS, Bridge, Lunch Out Together, and Walking/XC-Skiing. Learn more
