Thank you to the Friends of the Seguin Public Libraries
The Friends of the Seguin Public Libraries make a meaningful impact on our libraries by organizing fundraising events and bringing the community together. We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the dedicated volunteers who contribute their time and energy throughout the year. This year, the Friends organized the summer raffle prizes for the Fly-In, the Book Sale at the Foley Fall Fair, the Spring Tea, and the Book, Bake & Yard Sale at the end of summer. 
You're invited to the upcoming Christmas Tea on Wednesday, December 3rd at the Humphrey Branch, from 2:00 to 4:30 p.m. Your participation in these events helps support your local libraries—thank you for being part of it!

Write your Santa Letter at the Library
Starting November 17th, stop by any Seguin Public Library branch to write and send your letter to Santa using the provided materials. The final day to mail your letter from the library is December 8th—this gives Santa enough time to write back before Christmas, since the North Pole is so far away!
 
Be sure to include your full mailing address so Santa’s elves know where to deliver your reply. No postage necessary!
