On September 17 the Friends participated in the Brunswick Women’s Wine & Chocolate Walk by having an old-fashioned tea at the American Legion hall.
Here are a few photos before the hordes descended upon us.
Since our Book Sale at Railroad Days was washed out, we have scheduled a new event to take place at the Library.
Saturday, November 12, 2011 from 10AM to 5PM (Rain or shine!)
The book sale will take place at the Brunswick Library in the Community Room.
915 North Maple Avenue, Brunswick, Maryland
Book prices:
paperbacks 50¢
hard covers $1
plus a table of “special” books
With the washout of the Railroad Days book sale, the drawing for the NOOK Color was postponed until October 5.
The new Branch Administrator of the Brunswick Library, Michael Carlson (ably assisted by Mary Minnis) drew the winning ticket.
Our lucky winner was Carol Crow from Birmingham, Alabama. Congratulations, Carol!
We would like to thank all who made our raffle a success. We raised over $360 which we’ll use to help with programs at the Library.
Do you remember all of that rain we didn’t get in July?
Well, apparently Mother Nature decided to give it back to us all at once.
We gave it the old college try, but piles of books and torrential downpours do not mix. While we tried to save as much as we could, we ended up having to throw away three 64-gallon containers of sodden books.
Our biggest (and, until recently, only) fundraiser of the year was a total washout.
We are working on having an indoor book sale at the Library in November. Watch this space for details.
