You can SPONSOR A DAY at Rancho Mirage Public Library!
Welcome to the Rancho Mirage Public Library… Summer, with lofty temperatures, means a change of pace in the desert. Languid days, as you know, make Library visits a must. Much, but certainly not all, of our programming will focus on the Children’s Summer Reading Club (SRC) and all of its events, outlined in detail in this issue of our awardwinning Guide. The theme this year is “Read for the Win!” which aligns with the 2016 Summer Olympics in Brazil and most important, celebrates the Library’s 20th Anniversary. The SRC keeps kids busy, Monday – Friday, every week from June 20th through August 12th. The full schedule appears on pages 14 – 16 of this program guide. Everyone can participate since there are four age group categories spanning infant years to adult. For general audiences, especially film fans, the Library will screen a summer-long series of documentaries on Mondays. Docu-Mondays is a tribute to the Desert’s late documentarian, Joel Hochberg, and just like Joel, these films cover a wide range of interesting (and surprising) topics. Plus, we have these three big events for you: • Saturday, July 30th 10 PM – midnight: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Midnight Release Party. Our Community Room will become Hogwarts Great Hall, and there will be games, crafts, snacks and more! • Saturday, September 10th 2 – 3:30 PM: Jim Borax’s California Cabaret is back in concert with the Great American Songbook. • Wednesday, September 21st 7 – 8:00 PM: Bobby Jo Valentine returns with new songs in this special evening concert. Sizzling Summer days are a good time to take advantage of reading e-books and e-magazines on our website, ranchomiragelibrary.org, which you can do from your home computer or personal device. David Bryant, Library Director Note: Any changes to this schedule, including additional programs, will be announced on our website: ranchomiragelibrary.org If you would like to receive e-mail alerts about upcoming events, changes in our programming schedule, or events not shown here, please send your e-mail address to webmaster@ranchomiragelibrary.org. People with disabilities are encouraged to attend Library programs. If you have special communication or access needs, please contact the Library at (760) 341-7323 four business days in advance of the event(s) you will attend. Cover: Photo by Finley La Pick, 2016.

The Community Room at the Rancho Mirage Public Library is open with a walking track, 9 AM – 2 PM through October. The Community Room is air-conditioned and carpeted for a “soft” track at 71-100 Hwy 111, Rancho Mirage. Feet and joints will appreciate a carpeted floor that is much softer than pavement or concrete. The Library’s Community Room has ample open space for walking tracks plus a great sound system. The Library offers varying musical selections while walkers make laps. Any pace works in the Community Room — brisk to leisurely — with each lap 1/25th of a mile. “For those who count, a very average pace of 3 miles per hour will yield a mile on carpet in just 20 minutes,” says David Bryant, Library Director. It is possible to encounter a local celebrity or cross paths with an elected official along the way. Strike up a conversation, make new friends and get some exercise, all without breaking a sweat! The Library welcomes people with mobility issues, using canes, walkers, wheelchairs or receiving a helping hand from their caregivers and service dogs. This program is for everyone and comfortable shoes/sneakers are the only equipment needed.

Gifts to the Foundation support programs for all ages, the purchase of books and media, or the Children’s Summer Reading Club. Please consider a tax deductible contribution to support your Library. Library Tribute Cards Available at The Book Nook The Rancho Mirage Public Library Foundation is pleased to offer tribute cards with a beautiful image of the Library. These elegant cards recently received Best of Show at the PR Xchange Competition from the American Library Association in the Fundraising Materials/Print category. They are perfect for sending a friend a thank you, for honoring the memory of a family member or colleague, or for acknowledging a special moment. The cards are packaged in special decorative bags, with five cards priced at $20. The cards are available in the Library Foundation Book Store — The Book Nook — during Library hours. 4 Donor Roll of Honor Take a moment and peruse the Library’s newly designed DONOR ROLL OF HONOR on the wall near the west entrance. From 2003 to the present, people identified on this wall made gifts to the Library that went beyond City funding to make a great institution even more special. The Donor Wall of Honor includes the names of all who have made gifts of $2,000 (cumulatively) and ranging beyond $250,000.

This multi-faceted show includes a swingin’ sing-along of unforgettable standards and a variety of exciting performances by professional singers and dancers. Enjoy such performers as: Mary Ann Hermansen who has appeared in the hit show “Cabaret” on Broadway; Melissa Batallés who is a two-time winner of the McCallum Theater’s “Open Call”; Terri Olsen, a P.S. Follies singer and dancer; and Palmer Davis, a Radio City Rockette. Music will range from “Great American Songbook” selections to opera. So come to the Cabaret! Bobby Jo Valentine is a singer/ songwriter who chases after this particular kind of music. The authentic, universal, uncanny nature of his songs have won him Songwriter of the Year at West Coast Songwriter’s Association twice — in 2011 and 2015. His new album Fox Eyes, Whale Heart is his most soulful, poetic work to date, and he’ll be sharing stories and songs from that release during this performance. Don’t miss a special evening of poetry and music from this highly regarded new singer/songwriter.
