On Thursday, August 18 at 6:30 pm, the Ulysses Philomathic Library will host Caryn Sheckler to speak about her experience as a chair yoga instructor. This event is a part of the library’s Exercise Your Mind Summer Speakers Series. Chair yoga focuses on increasing balance through a gentle range of motion, breathing, and flexibility exercises. Scheckler was certified for Kundalini in Anandpur India in 2004 and leads sessions at the Ulysses Philomathic library and other locations in Trumansburg and Ithaca.
This event takes place in the Melvin Community Room of the library, and it is free and open to all.
All Summer Readers are invited to celebrate their dedication to reading with the friends they have met at the library. On Saturday August 20th at 10 am, the library will host a BubbleGames interactive performance at the Presbyterian Chapel across from the library. Readers are reminded to bring their bingo sheets for prizes. There will be ice cream too!
