Literary enthusiasts rejoice! A new way for readers to explore books is available at the Palm Coast Community Center through the concept of the Free Little Library, a nonprofit that builds community, inspires readers, and expands book access for all through a global network of volunteer-led little libraries.
The library is stained walnut in color and is about the size of a bird house. Books are placed inside of it and are free to borrow. The idea is to take one and leave one. Book donations are also accepted. It is located in the playground area of the Palm Coast Community Center, 305 Palm Coast Parkway NE.
Palm Coast’s Parks & Recreation department wants to help residents get out and move more in 2021: The Mayor’s 90/90 Challenge challenges participants to move for the equivalent of one walking-mile per day for the 90 days starting Jan. 4 and ending April 3.
