Purcell library plans to have programs on bugs and bees

Published: July 2, 2008

PURCELL — Children can learn about bugs during two special programs planned this month at Purcell Public Library, 919 N Ninth St.

The library is hosting "Please, Bug Me” at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. Local entomologist Jim Hurst will display his award-winning bug collections. He will discuss the various insects and talk to students about how to start a collection.

Children will learn about bees during another workshop at 10:30 a.m. July 15. Jerry Morris, president of the Noble Beekeepers Association, will talk about the different jobs bees do, how a hive works, and what products bees make. A hive will be on display at the event.

The programs are part of the Pioneer Library System's children's summer reading program, "Catch the Reading Bug.”
