The FRIENDS of the Ada Public Library--think the Library's booster club--is hosting a fundraiser this coming Monday May 9th at El Campo Restaurant.
There will be Trivia and a 50/50 Raffle from 5:30-7p.m. and even if you're not a trivia fan, consider eating at El Campo--10% of the proceeds, between 4p.m.-10p.m. will go to the FRIENDS of the Library.
The FRIENDS of the Library supports the Library in many ways, inluding running used books sales, making donations toward items the Library needs (i.e. a storytime rug), and hosting events like their famous Halloween Party--this year alone over 600 people attended the FRIENDS of the Ada Library Halloween Party!
It's less than a month away--mark your calendars for the Ada Public Library Summer Reading Kick-Off, which includes:
Summer Reading Sign-up
4-H Animals
Face Painting
Touch-a-Truck
a HUGE Used Book Sale
All events are free, except the Used Book Sale of course! Funds raised by the Book Sale--which will be run by FRIENDS of the Library members--go back to the Library and help in programming costs.
If you don't already have an Ada Library card consider signing-up today, as it will be needed to participate in the Summer Reading program.
