Best Sale Ever!

Thanks to All!

The Spring Used Book and Homemade Bake Sale was a huge success!  The sale raised $3323.25.  All proceeds will help pay for library equipment, events and materials.

This success wouldn't be possible without all the bakers, volunteers, item donations, and shoppers!  A huge thanks goes out to all involved.
 
A special thanks to the six Kohl's staff members who assisted in the sale and to Kohl's for their generous donation to the library!

Another special thanks to the White Lake Supermarket for donating plastic shopping bags for the sale.

Thank you for reading our newsletter. My staff and I hope to see you in the library soon!

 

Sincerely,
Cathy Forst, Library Director
