CLEARFIELD – The Joseph & Elizabeth Shaw Public Library will host a Halloween party for all children who participated in its Let’s Discover Fall Story Session I.

During the Halloween party, Shaw Public Library will begin registration for its Fall Story Session II, A Season of Giving. Preschool aged children will learn about the upcoming holiday seasons through stories, games, and crafts.
