Kids’ Money Workshop, Shred Day at Library

Posted: 4/2/2018 9:01:47 AM
The Coeur d’Alene Public Library wants your family to save money and protect your personal information with a pair of activities coming this month.
My Money, My Life is an STCU workshop for families with younger children – Grades K-4 –  designed to teach the benefits of budgeting and saving money.
The workshop will be offered in the Shirley Parker Storyroom in the Seagraves Children’s Library on Wednesday, April 11, at 6 p.m. The free program includes a make-it project – a Money Jar – for the kids to complete and a journal to take home, along with information on saving and budgeting. Snacks will also be provided.
Please register by calling the library at 208-769-2315, Ext. 426, with the number of children and adults who will attend. You can also email the information to [email protected].
Shred Day returns to the library on Saturday, April 14. A document-shredding truck operated by Devries Business Services will be in the upper parking lot at 702 E. Front Ave. from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. (or when the truck is full), for convenient drive-up service.
Bring any old financial or other confidential documents to have them safely destroyed.
Participants can bring up to five boxes of documents per car to be shredded.
Shred Day is made possible by a grant from the Friends of the Library.

Patrons who need accommodation to participate in library programs or services are asked to contact the staff prior to the activity by calling 208-769-2315 or email [email protected].
