Greetings!
I’d like to introduce myself, Judy McKenna, President of the Friends of Ida Rupp Public Library. I’ve asked the Director if we could have a small paragraph in the Newsletter each month and it was welcomed. Mark your calendars for the Annual Book Sale – it will kick off on Wednesday, August 2, 2017 for the Friends from 5:00pm – 7:00pm, as always memberships will be available for purchase at the door. The sale will be open to the public on Thursday, August 3, 2017 from 9:30am – 5:00pm and will wrap up on Friday, August 4, 2017 from 9:30am – 12:00pm. Stay tuned for more news on the Book Sale and Friends activities.
Thank you for your continued support! |
