Has anyone else's outdoor painted rock snake gone missing while the library was closed? We had a 30 rock long snake made at a summer reading event and today all that is left is the head and two rocks. Just wondering if this is localized vandalism or a "thing." Thanks!

We have a community one that our rock makers joined-- it's at a public park, so I'll check later today. Maybe kids just reverted to the original concept of hiding stones? We had a few do that as well during or rock events. On Mon, Jul 17, 2023 at 12:50 PM Samantha Reid-Goldberg via Michlib-l < michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:
