Main Library

Project Read members and staff will again come together to celebrate the holiday season with a festive party and potluck on Thursday, December 13th from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Don’t miss this opportunity to sample some amazing home cooking and spend a fun evening with other tutors and learners. We will also have some special door prizes and FREE raffle gifts donated by local businesses.

We are looking for some fabulous goods or professional services that can be given away during the evening’s free raffle. Please consider asking your employer to make a donation for this event. Here are some examples of previous donations: magazine subscriptions, tickets for brunch at a local hotel, gift certificates for a bookstore, and movie passes.

So mark your calendars for the evening of Thursday, December 13th. Invitations will be mailed to everyone in November. We look forward to seeing you there!
