No sign-up is needed and walk-ins are welcome. Made possible with support from the Friends of the Lacey Library.
Lacey Timberland LibraryLacey In Tune: Eric Ode
Part of the Lacey in Tune series at Huntamer Park, this performance features Eric Ode, whose name is pronounced Oh-dee, an award-winning children's singer and songwriter, a frequently published author and poet, and an engaging performer.

A former elementary teacher and middle school English instructor who holds a master's in educational technology, he has presented his music and poetry programs for schools, libraries, and community festivals throughout the United States and internationally in Germany, Japan, and Guam.
