Good morning, Waterloo.

The Waterloo Public Library announced a series of events for the last week of August—ranging from story times to workshops—and will host these activities to engage local residents.

On Sunday, dozens of local golfers played at Gateway Golf Course in a charity event called Woody's Toys to raise funds and collect toys for children in need.

Organizer Paul Woodward said the $80 fee covered green fees, a golf cart, lunch, and raffle entries—supporting Stead Family Children’s Hospital and Ronald McDonald House as more events are planned for the holiday season.
