Thank you, Friends of the GPL
We are so thankful to have a dedicated, passionate group who make up the Friends of the Goffstown Public Library! Every year they assist us in ways that add value to our Library for the entire community. From small projects to large, in 2015 the Friends have:
- beautified the outdoor space & kept our urns full of flowers,
- helped build & supply books for our Little Free Library in Abingdon Park,
- lent extra hands for children's and adult programs,
- fully funded the museum pass program - that's more than $2,800 every year,
- contributed almost $1,400 so families could decorate gingerbread houses together in our annual FREE programming!
- purchased a loveseat for the children's area and reupholstered our reading chair to match,
- purchased a "Pyramid of Play" for our smallest visitors, a new sound system for Open Mic Night and other events, and new folding chairs & storage.
The total spent on the GPL by the Friends this year amounted to $7,315.66, to be accepted by the Library Board of Trustees at their December 16 meeting.
