Have A Slice, Help The Library

What's your favorite kind of pizza? Pepperoni? Salami? Vegetarian? Hawaiian?

Whether you like olives, artichoke hearts, or Spam on your pizza doesn't matter. It all helps the Marin County Free Library in a fundraiser for the Children's Summer Reading Program on May 1 at California Pizza Kitchen in the Corte Madera Town Center.

Present a flyer with  your order and 20 percent of your check will be donated to the program. The flyer is available at library branches, or online at http://marinlibraryfriends.marin.org. Eligible purchases include dine-in, take-out and catering, and online orders are included.

Here are a few other ideas to start your week: 

• Art and culture lovers might want to visit Book Passage in Corte Madera to enjoy the work of local painter Susan Hall. While you're there, enjoy some coffee and a salad and sit down with a good book ... there are plenty to choose from. Hall's art will be on display through May 31.

• Redwood High's boys volleyball team hosts Tam at 5 p.m. Tuesday. Marin Catholic, meanwhile, plays at Drake on Tuesday, then hosts San Marin on Wednesday.

• Redwood meets Tam's girls on the soccer field Wednesday at 4:30 p.m.

• Calling all book lovers! Come to The Village for a good giggle with your children every Wednesday at 11 a.m., next to Muzzy Marsh.

• Once you've had your laughs, it's time to fill your belly. Hop on over to the Town Center for the farmer's market every Wednesday, noon to 5 p.m.
