Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Friends of the Library table at National Night Out!
We had such a blast connecting with our community, handing out glow-in-the-dark bracelets and sharing fun back-to-school stickers.
A big congratulations to our Count the Candy Contest winner! Michael had the honor of calling to deliver the sweet news. For everyone wondering... the jar held exactly 179 Hershey’s Kisses! 🍬
Check out some photos from the night below!
