Saturday, June 3rd, 2 pm to 3 pm.
Music by The Junebugs. The Junebugs combine high-energy pop with Pacific Northwest folksy goodness to create a genre-bending sound you can kick up your heels to. Free for all ages by the Library Hearth. Sunday, June 4th, 2 pm to 3 pm.
All three events are supported by a donation from the Friends.
On Thursday evening Karen Uboldi represented the Friends at the Talbots fundraiser, telling customers about our mission, inviting them to join us, publicizing our book sale, and selling book bags. We netted eleven new members at this event thanks to Karen’s efforts!
The Friends May book sale is coming up this weekend, May 5-7. Friends volunteers Virginia Green, Penny Huelat, and Kay Kendall decorated the library’s lobby display case with books and memorabilia to help publicize the sale. Be sure to check it out when you come to the sale.
