Walton & Tipton Township Public Library
Night sky event!
Join us for an unforgettable night of stargazing and planet watching. Provided by the Walton Library, the event will be hosted by Forrest Hamilton. He will have telescopes available for viewing the cosmos.
The event will begin at 9:45 p.m. and be held on Saturday, August 15th, at the Little League Ball Diamond in Walton. Please make sure you arrive on time so that headlights do not shine on the viewing area. The park will have all lights shut off during the event. Please do not use your cellphone lights, either. Light causes viewing problems and we want everyone to have an equal opportunity to view the stars and planets through Mr. Hamilton’s specialized telescopes.
The library will provide some red lights, which are safe during night-sky viewing.
Feel free to bring lawnchairs or blankets to sit on.
This will be a free event where you will be able to learn more about our solar system – and possibly get some fantastic photos! Bring your cameras if you want. (Just no flashes, please.)
Healthy Habits
The Cass County Health Department has started making its rounds to our community.
Hosted by the Walton Library, the Health Department is accepting patients for general health testing. Get tested for high, low, or perfect blood pressure as well as diabetes, among other conditions – all for free. You don’t need to make an appointment. Simply come to the library and wait your turn to be seen by an employee with the Health Department. You won’t be able to miss their RV/Truck that will be parked in the front lawn.
The next health screening day is August 25th from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m.
In keeping with good health, the Health Department will be offering back-to-school physicals from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. on July 31st at Muehlhausen Park, 721 21st Street, Logansport. This will take place during its Back-to-School Bash, featuring $25 sports physicals, free pool entrance, a food truck, free hot dogs, giveaways, and so much more.
