Director’s Letter
Just a Simple List of Positive Things:
- We have two book sales coming up in the next month because we have too many donations to just have one.
- Miss Debbie is going to be at the Hummingbird Festival on May 2 with with crafts, coloring sheets, and Bryce!
- Laurie Church, one of our Trustees, has saved us at least $3,285 (and shipping) by refinishing our Windsor spindle chairs and finding used cushioned sets in good condition. Come and sit in them!
- Our mini-split refrigerant lines have all been replaced. The building is no longer accentuated by crumbling pipe insulation.
- Our first meeting of the Book Nerds was popular enough to establish it as a regularly scheduled program. On May 9 we’ll be discussing On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous and playing Apples to Apples.
- Our services are free, our budget is looking good, and our community support is high.
- It’s gonna be May!
Thanks for Reading
