Dear Library Member,
The Banjo Rascals have been delighting audiences of all ages for many years with a variety of distinctive toe-tapping music. Their music ranges from 1890s Ragtime to 1950s, 60's and 70s rock. They perform Scott Joplin rags, including The Entertainer, Maple Leaf Rag and A Breeze from Alabama. The Banjo Rascals encourage sing-alongs with favorites like Heart of My Heart, Carolina in the Morning, Four Leaf Clover and Down By The Old Mill Stream. They heat things up with Hot Dixieland standards like Tiger Rag, That's a Plenty, Riverboat Shuffle, Royal Garden Blues and When the Saints Go Marching In. Don't miss this great summer concert at the Library on Saturday, August 1 at 2 pm. Sponsored in cooperation with the Old Bridge Cultural Arts Committee.
Spread the word! The Old Bridge Public Library Comic Con is coming Saturday, August 15 and will last from 11 am to 4 pm! It's dedicated to comics, graphic novels, anime, manga, video games, toys, movies, and television. The entertainment and fun will be fantastic! Graphic artists and published authors will be on hand.
