And thank you to everyone who shared the love this September! Although we don’t have final numbers, we are on track to set an all-time fundraising record. We couldn’t have done it without all of you.
Special thanks to the amazing volunteers who helped make our Strega Nona Spaghetti Dinner and a huge thanks to Danielle Trenney, Haven Cafe and Christine and John King, Revival on Lincoln for generously giving of your time and cooking skills to make our Spaghetti Dinner evening delicious and special!
As always thanks to the Friends of Bayne Library for sponsoring the spaghetti dinner and all of your fundraising efforts.
And of course thanks to the Jack Buncher Foundation for sponsoring the $200,000 match pool that turned boring old September into Love Your Library month!
If you are on your way to the pool, the fitness walk, or the dog park at Memorial Park, be sure to check out our summer Storywalk featuring, If I Had a Dinosaur by Alex Barrow.
A little girl dreams of having her very own pet. But what kind of animal would make the best companion? A mouse is too small, a cat is too ordinary, and a fish is too . . . wet! As she plays with her toy dinosaur, inspiration strikes. What about a real, live dinosaur? She could ride it to school. It would need lots of food to eat, a swimming pool to drink from, and a dino flap so it could come and go!
Learn more about StoryWalks and get some ideas for additional activities.
