Spring Quarterly Sale To Be Held on Saturday, May 4th and Sunday May 5th
At a late-night press conference on Sunday, April 21st, an exhausted, but ebullient Friends’ President Nancy Wittig stated. “We’re just about ready for the Spring 2024 Quarterly Sale! We’ve been working so hard to make this the best one yet. I’ve never been this tired, but at the same time excited, at any point in my life. And don’t forget, the Sale will take place in the Ledding Library’s Community Room from 10 AM to 4 PM both days.” The President then thanked the volunteers who staffed the sale and the others who worked behind the scenes to create such a stupendous event.
GO FRIENDS! GO FRIENDS! GO FRIENDS!
2024 Sunday Book Sales Start on May 12th
“There’s no rest for the wicked”, expostulated Friends’ President Nancy Wittig during a recent wide-ranging interview at her home. “Our first Sunday Sale Book Sale is taking place on May 12th, and I’m more excited than when they added purple horseshoes to Lucky Charms.” The Sales will be held each Sunday through the end of October and will take place from 10 AM to 2 PM in the Ledding Library’s Community Room. “We’ll have more books, media and merchandise than you could shake a stick at” exclaimed Wittig.

Friends’ Book Store Going Strong
Located inside the Ledding Library, the Friends Book Store stocks a wide range of exciting books, media and merchandise — and is staffed entirely by volunteers. The Book Store is currently open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesday and Thursdays from 10AM to 6PM; on Fridays from 10AM-4PM; on Saturdays from 10AM-3PM and on Sundays from 12PM-3PM.
