The Polar Express has arrived!

The “Mystic Polar Express” has arrived in the Children’s Room at the Mystic & Noank Library. Barry Boodman and Bill Salancy created and donated a railroad miniature in what has become a holiday tradition.  Children and families are invited to visit the Library during regular hours to make the train puff and toot its way around this magical setting.  As a fundraiser, the Library is auctioning off the entire set throughout the month of December.  Bidding closes on Saturday, December 22 at 2 p.m.

For more information, please contact the Children's Room at 860-536-7721.
