Friends of Red Hook Library inaugurates LEGO drive.

The first meeting of the resuscitated Friends of the Red Hook Library was held last Saturday at the library.  Our first project is begun. Once a month the library hosts a Lego group. Kids who sign up come in and create all kinds of things out of Legos. Thing is, the library could use more blocks for the kids – so we have started a LEGO DRIVE! If you have grown up kids who don’t need the blocks anymore, it would be highly appreciated if you could bring them to Sandra at the library. If you would like your gift acknowledged publicly, shoot an email over to us at the Star-Revue (george@redhookstar.com), and we will print it in the paper, as well as the name of someone you’d like to have acknowledged with your gift.

This drive is ongoing – whenever the library is open (which now includes Saturdays), you make make your donation. And many thanks!

How to Celebrate a Swedish Christmas, by Oscar Fock

Sweden is a place of plenty of holiday celebrations. My American friends usually say midsummer with the fertility pole and the wacky dances when I tell them about Swedish holidays, but to me — and I’d wager few Swedes would argue against this — no holiday is as anticipated as Christmas. Further, I would argue that Swedish Christmas is unlike

A new mother finds community in struggle, by Kelsey Sobel

My son, Baker, was born on October 17th, 2024 at 4:02 am. He cried for the first hour and a half of his life, clearing his lungs, held firmly and safely against my chest. When I first saw him, I recognized him immediately. I’d dreamed of being a mother since I turned thirty, and five years later, becoming a parent
