Upcoming Fundraisers for the Library

I got this message from the folks at that Phoenicia Library. Please try and support whatever events you can and help to rebuild one of the most important resources in our community.

Phoenicia Library rebuild PHOENIX FUNDRAISERS

Well, we continue to forge ahead nestling into our location at 9 Ava Maria, which is feeling much less transient, with the addition of more and more books, materials and computers, and especially visits from you! We will begin clean up of the building at 48 Main next week, with our hopes and sights on rebuilding there. We will also be posting a wish list on our website soon, for all of those who have asked. We remain so grateful to all of you for your continued support, as we have a long road ahead of us. But, judging by the list of fundraisers below, we may even have some fun in the process. (Expect some updates to the list, as we have more information)
HOPE TO SEE YOU!--The Phoenicia Library Staff and Library Board.
