Your ticket purchase helps the Friends of the Talbot County Free Library build a better future for the St. Michaels Library that we all love. Our goal for this event is to raise $13,000 which will be used to purchase library materials for the newly renovated and expanded library. Our partners and ticket holders have made incredible strides towards our goal, but we still have $7,000 to raise from this event. Ticket sales will close on Thursday, October 6.  Many restaurants will be offering post-cruise dinner discounts. For more information, contact the Friends at tcflfriends@gmail.com. To purchase a ticket, visit www.tcfl.org today!

If you are unable to join us, please consider donating now to help fill the shelves of the newly expanded St. Michaels Library set to be completed in the fall of 2025. Invest in your library today to make our community stronger now and in the future. Every dollar makes a difference!
