            Looking for an excuse to enjoy a cup (or two!) of coffee outdoors? Join us for this outdoors event right next to the red barn along the Waubonsie Creek in Downtown Oswego. Feel free to bring coffee made at home or a way to make it there. You will also have the opportunity to take a tour of the historic Kolhammer Barn. This is a great event to ride your bicycle to. Motor vehicle parking is in the library parking lot. Weather permitting as this is an outdoor event, also suggested you bring a chair or blanket to sit on in the event the grass is wet. Contact Bill with any questions.
