PFL Vacation Programming was packed with fun activities. The children enjoyed themes like Lost in Space, It's a Mystery and A Day at the Races, but the best day was Friday when It's No Fun turned into It's Snow Fun! 

Nancy Drew a.k.a Ms. Karen visited the Pawling Free Library thanks to Catherine Robohn.  The library was filled with mystery as young detectives gathered on Friday the 13th to find all of the program books missing!  Nancy and her crime solvers used their best thinking skills to identify the culprit, locate the missing books and return them to their correct locations before 5 pm.
