From CADL Stockbridge
Get outside with help from the library
by Head Librarian Sherri McConnell
A quiet, beige room with books along the walls and a few tables and chairs may come to mind when someone mentions a library. You might be surprised to find out that the Capital Area District Libraries offers ways to get outside.
The bicycles are back at the Stockbridge Branch and can be checked out for three days at a time, so they can be used for a full weekend. You must have a current CADL library card and be 18 or older to check them out. We also have pickleball paddles and disc golf sets to borrow, library card not required.
With your CADL library card, you can check out a Potter Park Zoo family pass, an Ingham County Parks pass that includes pedal boat rental or disc golf pass at selected parks or a pass to Impression 5 children’s science museum in Lansing for four. These passes are popular and there is usually a waiting list for them, so plan accordingly. Get more details at our service desk or at cadl.org/things.
Finally, CADL participates in the Michigan Activity Pass program. Use your library card to “check out” free or discounted passes to hundreds of cultural destinations, parks, campgrounds, and recreation areas. Start here to search all the places you can go with your library card: miactivitypass.org.
Capital Area District Libraries’ Stockbridge Branch is located at 200 Wood St. For more information, call 517-851-7810 or visit cadl.org.
