📖 Earlier today, The Oshkosh Experience class strolled over to the Oshkosh Public Library! Our group had both veteran and first time library goers but everyone enjoyed learning about all of the different things the library has to offer. A big thank you to OPL for hosting us and to Sandy for the amazing tour!

We are so grateful for the opportunity to extend the learning beyond the classroom. These experiences were made possible by a grant from the Ladies Benevolent Society: Advocates for Older Adults Fund within the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation
