Spring Steps We surpassed our goal of walking the length of the Trans-Canada Highway last year, so we will have no problem surpassing 2018's goal of walking twice the length of the Bruce Trail (1780km). Challenge yourself to walk the equivalent of the length of the Bruce Trail while you're at it! All you have to do is sign out a pedometer, track your daily steps, and report into us weekly to help reach this goal! Email jnoble@shelburnelibrary.ca for more information Children`s Programs: Since we have so much excitement happening at the library during March Break, Books and Babies, Lego Club and Story Time will NOT be running the week of March 12th - 18th.
