Summary of April Meeting
For National Library Week, April 8 - 14, the Friends are doing a free book giveaway.
All patrons have to do is fill out an entry form, circle the book they'd like to win, and drop it in the entry box.Three books will be given away. All are by Misty Copeland, who is this year's Honorary Chairperson. The drawing will be held on Thursday, April 19, so there's still time to enter.
Jennifer Groth is our publicity and program chairperson. Last week's Eagle Observer published an article written by her about the Friends' 25th Anniversary, and the Geranium Sale.
