Let Us Help

There are so many things to do before the holidays - planning, cleaning, decorating, crafting, shopping, wrapping, baking. It's easy to get overwhelmed and too busy to enjoy the season. Let us help!

Our Friends are busy getting ready for their annual bake sale. Starting at noon on Thursday, December 10th, the meeting room will be filled with beautiful baked goods of all sorts, wrapped and ready to give as gifts, or as a treat for your family. The sale will continue on Friday until everything is sold.

(And if you have your holiday projects under control, donations of homemade cookies, candy, breads, etc. will be gratefully accepted starting at 10 a.m. on Thursday.)

Library Board Meets Thursday

The December meeting of the Library's Board of Trustees will be held this Thursday, December 10th, at 4:15 p.m. Board meetings are open to the public.

Brrrrr!

Well, no, it's not quite that cold yet - but there was snow on the ground when I woke up yesterday! I thought this would be a good time to remind everyone that when the Sodus Central schools are closed because of inclement weather or impassable roads, the Library is also closed. The only exception to the rule is when the District closes because of extreme temperatures; in that case, we'll be open and offer a warm place for you to hibernate. Personally, I'm hoping for a beautiful white Christmas, and a nice mild winter starting December 26th!

Library hours this holiday week will be:

Sunday, 2-5 p.m.

Book Club Meets Tomorrow

Join us at noon tomorrow, Thursday, November 19th, for a discussion of Garth Stein's The Art of Racing in the Rain. Feel free to bring your lunch - also bring along suggestions for our next selection. We will be skipping December because of everyone's busy holiday schedules, and will plan to meet again in January.

Friends Meeting

The monthly meeting of our Friends group will be held tomorrow (Tuesday, November 17th) at 1:30 p.m. in the library's meeting room. Come join us as we plan ahead for the Holiday Bake Sale.

We're Celebrating!

What an amazing sale our Friends group had - they brought in $1,959.50 at last week's used book sale! While there are still a couple of bills that need to be paid, for advertising, etc., this totally smashed all previous records. Thanks to Book Sale Chairman Shirley Patchett, Friends President Lynn Griffith, and all those who worked so hard. Thanks, also, to all of you who came in and shopped. As I always say, we *love* our Friends!
