MINOCQUA FRIENDS -- DOING THEIR PART


The Friends of the Minocqua Public Library recently stepped up to the plate and did their part in the funding for the "EXTREME MAKEOVER" of the Minocqua Public Library facilities. President Mary Louise Hansen and Treasurer Barbara Edwards presented a check exceeding $23,500.00 to Library Director, Mary Taylor !!!


The Minocqua Friends do a great job with generating funds from their two annual book sales, as well as other fundraising activities during the year. They do many other things in the community as well. Currently, they are paying for the re-publication of a children's coloring book which features images out of Minocqua's past, which will be sold by the Historical Society in Minocqua. They are currently setting up their Quarterly Newsletter on a "listserv" so they can reach area residents even when some of them go South for the Winter.
HATS OFF TO YOU ....... FRIENDS OF THE MINOCQUA PUBLIC LIBRARY !!!
