Thank You!

Library Wishing Tree 2012

Every ornament lists an item the library would like to have, and its price.  “Buy” an ornament for the price listed, and we’ll use the funds to buy the item listed. There will be ornaments on the tree until late December.

THANK YOU TO THESE GENEROUS PATRONS WHO HAVE PURCHASED ORNAMENTS:

Dolly Ozburn donated the picture book Squirrel’s New Year’s Resolution, by Pat Miller.
Anonymous donated the Lift-the-Flap book The Great Hanukkah Party, by Suzy-Jane Tanner.
Nels, Alyssa & Logan Teske donated Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever, by Jeff Kinney.
Kathy McBride, a member of our Library Board, donated a novel for our adult fiction collection: The Good House, by Ann Leary.
Mike and Carol Rasmussen donated two music CD’s: Dreamchaser by Sarah Brightman,
and A Merry Christmas with Bing Crosby & the Andrew Sisters.
The Teske Family donated the soundtrack from the December 2012 movie, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

And a special thank you to Mary & Tom Ladwig for their generous check for us to use where most needed.

A BIG thank-you to the Zahorik Foundation for the grant we were awarded for the Summer Library Program. This grant is what allows us to hire the amazing performers we enjoy so much.
