Friends of the Library to host fundraisers

The "Friends of the Library" committee met last month to develop plans for this year's fundraisers. The first event will be a Family Feud Game that will take place on Saturday, June 27, at the United Church of Christ in California. The game will feature four local families. The evening will begin with a Sundae Bar from 6:30-7:30 p.m., where you create your own sundae with a variety of toppings. During this time, Connie Walker, Library Director, and her sister, Linda Cable, will provide music for entertainment. At 7:30 p.m., the Family Feud game will begin with four families playing two games each and the winning two teams will play the final round. Admission to the evening's fun will be a donation at the door.

We are looking for families to put together a five member team. If you are interested in participating, call Connie at the library at 573-796-2642 for more information. Questions asked during the games will be from surveys taken from library patrons.

This year's fundraising effort will go towards new carpet in the library. The carpeting is 17 years old and needs replacing with carpet tiles, which are for commercial use and have a hard backing.

The next fundraiser will be the second Smartypants Trivia night on Oct. 3. Mark your calendars for these fun events to be held at the United Church of Christ friendship hall. Save the date and join others for a fun evening.
