The Return of Pinckney’s Library After Hours Program

The Pinckney Library’s popular adult program series Library After Hours returned from its summer hiatus with a wonderful presentation of “Yoga for Life” on September 13, 2006. Speaker and instructor, Lucille Lighstone-Brochu, who has been a yoga instructor for over 20 years, presented to 15 participants the benefits to the mind and body of yoga as relaxation and meditation.


Terri Harris and
Jan Carpenter
went home as winners of that
evening’s door prizes.







The October 11 presentation by corporate chef for Busch’s, Rebecca Miller, was all about “European Cheeses”. Ms. Miller presented to attendees the many varieties of cheeses and what to serve with them to compliment their flavors. Pinckney resident, Evie Bitondo, went home that evening with a $15 Busch’s Gift card as a door prize from the event.


If you missed any of these presentations, don’t worry! Coming up on Wednesday, November 8, 2006 at 6:30pm, Rex Halfpenny, editor of the Michigan Beer Guide, will introduce attendees to a variety of delicious beers that come from our state in his presentation of Michigan Beer”. “Great beers don’t necessarily have to come from Germany or Canada!” (Patrons need to be 21 years or older in order to attend this program.) The Bavarian Inn Lodge in Frankenmuth, MI has generously provided a gift certificate for a free Sunday Brunch for 2 as a door prize. Whole Foods Market in Ann Arbor is also providing the dessert tray for the evening’s refreshments.
