This adults-only program will teach participants how to play some of the new and exciting games from the library’s collection. Attendees will get a chance to play the game with others, ask questions, and connect with others in a fun and welcoming environment.
This month, we’re playing Apples to Apples. Apples to Apples is a fast-paced party game where the goal is to win the most “Green Apple” (adjective) cards by matching them with the best “Red Apple” (noun) card from your hand. A judge for each round selects the winning noun based on personal preference, often leading to humorous, subjective comparisons.
Thrive 85 is a FREE community event designed to help connect individuals and families in need to resources in the community.

It’s garden time and we couldn’t be more excited! The only problem? Most of us have too many of a certain type of plant or seed. Fortunately, our friends at Purdue Extension are here to help us out with our fourth annual Plant Swap.
Bring your extra seeds and plants to the library, set them out for display on a library table, and start giving away or swapping with other nature lovers!
Have questions about soil, pollinators, or plants? Purdue Extension staff will be happy to provide you with information.
Don’t have anything to swap or giveaway? No problem! Come anyway – there’s always plenty to go around.

Join us in Downtown Wabash for May’s First Friday! A Leadership Development Wabash County team is working to raise funds to help stock the fishing ponds at Josiah White’s residential campus. Come out, show your support, and help make a splash for a great cause!
The students at Josiah White’s enjoy fishing during their recreational time. Unfortunately, the fish population in these ponds has declined and needs to be restored through pond maintenance and restocking.
Fishing is more than a recreational activity for these students- it is a powerful therapeutic tool. For teens who have experienced trauma, time spent at the water’s edge offers stillness, patience, and a sense of calm. As casting and waiting helps regulate the nervous system and reduce anxiety, it also helps build confidence and self-esteem as students develop a skill, experience small victories, and take pride in their accomplishments. Perhaps most importantly, it provides a peaceful, low-pressure environment where meaningful connections can form between peers, between a student and family teacher, and between a young person and nature. For youth navigating the effects of trauma, these moments of connection and quiet achievement can be profoundly healing.
We would greatly appreciate your support to help us reach our fundraising goal. You can contribute through participating in our cornhole tournament or making a donation.
Registration:
-$20 per two-person team
-Teams will go through a single-elimination bracket. Pre-registration is recommended, as on-site registration may be limited.

A true story of resilience and love.
“For the Love of Stephen is my debut memoir – a heartfelt, honest, and often humorous tribute to my remarkable brother, Steve. Born with intellectual and developmental disabilities, Steve defied society’s expectations and transformed every life he touched.
More than a family story, this book is a journey of love, resilience, and the unshakable truth that Steve was never broken. I wrote it for anyone who believes that every life has meaning, every voice deserves to be heard, and every story is worth remembering.”
Dr. Stuart D. Jones is a retired higher-education executive and former church minister who now teaches college courses part-time and writes with a passion shaped as much by life as by books. Over the years, he has spoken at many universities, churches, conferences, seminars, workshops, and leadership events around the world on a variety of topics. A devoted advocate for disability rights, he believes every life has purpose and worth.
Yet no credential has shaped him more deeply than being Steve’s brother.
Dr. Jones holds advanced degrees in both education and theology and has been published in several academic forums. For the Love of Stephen is his first work of narrative nonfiction – and by far, his most personal.
Join Dr. Stuart as he leads an interactive presentation about For The Love of Stephen, and selected readings from the book. There will be a meet and greet with the author along with a book sale and signing at the end of the program.
