Fund Raising

Come and Harvest a Pumpkin. We have all of our magazine and newspaper subscription titles on a pumpkin. Come in, harvest a pumpkin and donate that magazine to the library. Due to budget cuts, we do not have funds to renew our newspapers and magazines. Help the library out by Harvesting a Pumpkin. To date, we have received in cash and magazine donations $730. We still have $625 worth of subscriptions that need to be "harvested".
