Teens! Come to the Library … if you dare. Learn how to create disgusting wounds, be monstrous, then watch a scary movie and eat some pizza. Creatures must be present to vote on which movie to be terrified by. Sponsored by the Friends of the Aberdeen Timberland Library.

We’ll be signing up your outfits and brands, gathering up your herds, palavering a little about how the trail drive will work this year, and having some good old down-home fun! Trail Boss this year is Barbara Dyer, and the Ramrod is Glennis Stamon. Jane Madtson is the Heeler/Chaser, and the rest of the trail crew is saddled up and a’roaring to head-em up and move’em out!
Outriders for the Roundup this year are two ‘ornery Relay For Life hardcases from a way up yonder in Tacoma – Pat Flynn (the Mother of Relay) and JD Drollinger. They’re wound up and ready to let ‘er buck as they share some Tall Tales and maybe even engage in a little “Fancy Dancin”.
So ya’ll get your range duds out, dust off your Stetson, shine up your best boots, mount up on your cayuse and mosey on over and enjoy the fun! Everyone is welcome to come on down, sit a spell, and have a rootin’ tootin’ good time!

Based on a true story, the 1963 has a group of allied escape artist-type prisoners-of-war in an ‘escape proof’ POW camp. Their leader decides to try to take out several hundred all at once. The first half of the film offers laughs as the prisoners mostly outwit their jailers to dig the escape tunnel. The second half is high adventure and suspense as they use boats, trains and planes to flee occupied Europe.
