Ep. 138: April Fun
<p>April is full of fun things: April Fool's Day, National Poetry Month, National Library Week, National Gardening Month, and our annual Library After Dark fundraiser. So we thought we'd talk a little bit about all of it. Members Julie, Natalie, and Eric from The Winding Waters Group of the Sierra Club Hoosier Chapter talk about their organization, plants, gardening, and how you can help. Some staff (Rachel A. and Tessa) talk about the history of April Fool's Day and some of their favorite pranks, while others (Lindsey, Annemarie, Dakota, and Liz) discuss some of their favorite poetry. We're also joined by Kimberly of the Friends of the Library to talk more about what their organization does for the library and to get details about their annual even Library After Dark. </p> <p>Here are the links and information to some of the things referenced in the podcast.<br /> Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson Memorial Library:<br /> <a id="OWAbb192492-7543-6ce1-96da-a5ce6f211a62" title= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/rieventscalendar/posts/10160395438438950/" href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/rieventscalendar/posts/10160395438438950/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-linkindex="0" data-ogsc= "">https://www.facebook.com/groups/rieventscalendar/posts/10160395438438950/</a></p> <div data-ogsc="black">The poem Annemarie is referring to by Muhammad Ali is a 1975 poem.
