The Friends of the Canton Public Library Annual Meeting and Potluck Supper

The Friends of the Canton Public Library held their Annual Meeting and Potluck Supper on June 5, 2015. The gathering of the Friends, along with Trustees of the library was held at the library and was well attended. Good food and conversation was enjoyed by all.
The Friends are a group of volunteers who work all year to fundraise and promote the library. The April Book Sale, Annual Membership Drive, Taste Dining and Activity Books Sale and the upcoming Fall Book Sale, which is the biggest fundraiser of the year, all help to raise monies for the library.
Laura Hage, Vice-President of the Friends, presented Sarah McCusker, Director of the library, with a check for $15,000. This gift will provide $2,000 for teen programming as well as enable the library to purchase a needed podium and other equipment and services for the library.
Moving forward, the Friends will soon be collecting good, used books for the Fall Book Sale to be held on Saturday, Sept. 12 and Sunday, Sept. 13.
New volunteers are always welcome.
welcome.
