Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by constructing a marionette horse and coordinate your own synchronized Escaramuza Chara with friends. For ages 5 - 12 with their parent or caregiver.
Escaramuza is an exclusively female event in Charrería, Mexican rodeo, where women appear identical in dress and styling drawn from Mexico's history. We will learn about Escaramuza Charra through the story Rhea's Rodeo by Laekan Zea Kemp.
Please join us after Storytime for Parent Café, an opportunity to chat with other caregivers and gather parenting tips from a Triple P Positive Parenting Program accredited staff member.

The first building was a private residence of the librarian, Mrs. W. A. Jones. In 1930, the library moved and changed its name to the Ben Lomond Library. In July 1962, the Charter Oak Library moved to 20562 Arrow Highway.
After a tragic fire which destroyed much of the library and its collection, it was relocated in 1991 to its present location in the unincorporated area near the cities of Covina and Glendora.
