February 12 & 13, Friday and Saturday, you are invited to the Ashland Library Train Show from 1:30 to 5:30.    Operating sets and static displays will be provided by the Boot Hill Train Club and the Northwest Oklahoma Model Railroad Club.  A Thomas the Train display provided by Wes Reimer will be available for hands-on enjoyment.

Monday, January 18, at 12:00 noon, the Ashland Library will host its first luncheon of the new year.  Country humorist, Jerry W. Engler, author of  Just Folks, A Heartland Voice and Highly Embellished Truth, will entertain.  As Engler says, “I think my stories are better than TV, and not half so nasty as day-time TV.  They continue to be fiction literature, highly embellished truth, complete concoctions or great lies!”

Engler has traveled extensively promoting his books, including engagements at the Kansas Festival for the Book, the Sampler Festival and the Kansas State Fair.

Reservations required by January 15, six dollar donation is suggested to help cover costs.

Monday, September 14 at 12:00 noon, the Ashland Library will host a Cowboy Coffee Luncheon.  A western themed lunch is planned, with a special chili made of locally smoked meats, cornbread, and peach cobbler made in a Dutch oven over a slow fire.  An amusing program by Cowboy Poet Marti Sheetz is planned, with guitar backup by Don Bryant of Coldwater.  A donation of $5 is suggested to help cover costs.
