Residents of West Barnstable...as most of you know, the Whelden Memorial Library
always holds a bake sale at the West Barnstable Community Building on Election Day.
But not this year! Our polling location has been moved to the Barnstable-West
Barnstable Elementary School...but fear not, we will still hold our Election Day Bake
Sale!
Please join us at the Whelden Memorial Library on Rte. 149 on Tuesday, November 8 th as we offer our traditional Election Day Bake Sale! We will be open 9AM-2PM and have delicious baked goods, Gretchen's Election Day Snack Mix, and a truly delicious
selection of goodies!! The library depends on the funds raised at the bake sale to help
support our increasing number of children's and adult programs...many offered at no
charge to the public. Please remember to do your civic duty and vote then swing by the
library and support the Whelden Memorial Library!
Thank you!
