Valentine’s Day marks that time of the year when students place baggies on their desks in hopes of receiving valentines from their classmates, but it is also a great time to spread the love which is what the Friends of the Turlock Public Library organization have done. This is the second year that the organization has sponsored a Valentine’s Craft Day at the local library providing students from all across town a central place to meet and create together. Aptly timed before Valentine’s Day, kids were afforded the opportunity to make “sweet” valentines by using Hershey’s kisses to form the shape of a rose bud and attach them to sticks and to color Valentine’s themed drawings. Children of all ages came to the event, and whether they made one rose or a bouquet, each one went home with a big smile on their face.
