Adventure Pass temporarily shut down in 2025

Due to software issues affecting all libraries using the service, the Iowa Adventure Pass program will temporarily shut down in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can still make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. The service will return at a later time. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Program Description

Event Details

Crucial Conversations is designed to help parents and caregivers become more comfortable talking with their children about sexual and reproductive health. We'll supply you with the knowledge and tools to begin having these crucial conversations. This two-part series can be attended in full or as two individual sessions. 

The first session will focus on how to answer your child's questions about sexual and reproductive health. You will leave this class feeling confident in answering questions with compassion and also gain an understanding of how much information to share with your child and when.  

The second session will discuss how adults can teach consent and healthy relationships at any age. From putting on coats to hugging family members goodbye, we can empower children at an early age to create boundaries around their bodies. Participants will receive the tools to have meaningful conversations with their children to build positive relationships and communication skills.

Both sessions will be presented by Beth Mensing.
