Description

The Brandywine Community Library serves residents of Topton borough, and District, Longswamp and Rockland townships. Our mascot is a Greek tortoise named Sheldon, and we celebrate his birthday with this family event each year. Little plastic tortoises are raced down the creek at the Topton Park, while children and families cheer for their turtle to reach the finish line first.

Local community groups participate with giveaways, and we host a silent art auction and raffle.
