Zoom Good Stories, Well ReadSaturday, July 25, 2:00 p.m. Online If you have ever attended a Good Stories, Well Read event, usually held at the West Yarmouth Library, you know that it is entertainment and enrichment at its finest. Think of this as "storytime for grownups." This time around, listen to classic stories read with feeling by local Cape Cod actors - in the privacy of your own home - by joining the Zoom meeting for virtual Good Stories, Well Read. Please register at the Calendar of Events at www.yarmouthlibraries.org, in order to receive a Zoom invitation via email. While this is sponsored by the West Yarmouth Library Association, since it is virtual, you'll have to provide your own snacks! But, tell all your friends and neighbors to register and join the fun - keeping 6 feet apart, of course!
