\nThe National Library Week Photo Contest Winner<\/strong> was entered by Shirley Ries. The picture was of her daughter, Gabrielle. Her photo generated $32.99 of our grand total of $111.67. The ballot and registration money will go towards children’s programming. Thanks to those who registered their “Get Caught Reading” photos and everybody who voted with pennies to dollars.
\nLibrary Closures<\/strong>
\nThe Library will be Saturday May 28th and Monday May 30th in observance of the Memorial Day Holiday. The drop box on the Library porch will be available for returns throughout this closure.
