On Monday, Jan. 16, parents and grandparents are invited for a Merrill police presentation on internet safety and cyberbullying, related to their children and grandchildren. Starting at 6:30 p.m. in the T. B. Scott Free Library Community Room, adults will be treated to dessert and beverages from First Street Coffee Station as they listen, watch video clips, and have time for questions.
Middle school-aged kids will be treated to a Merrill police internet safety presentation, brief video clips, pizza and door prizes drawings on Friday, Jan. 13, from 4-5:30 p.m. in the T. B.
