There are some important dates and events coming up at our library. Some of you have been reading about the opening of the Remer Library in their historical train depot. You can all be very proud that we gave them approximately half of their collection from duplicate titles donated to us. We also loaned them six shelving units and procured paperback spinner racks for them from Hennepin County Libraries.

A very dynamic young lady named Rachel McCall was the energetic force behind the whole idea in Remer. To show her appreciation for helping with the Remer Library, she will be at our library on Saturday, April 20th from 10-1, hosting a fundraising event benefitting the Outing Library.

We are gearing up for Summer Story Times each Saturday morning from 10-10:45 beginning on May 25th through Labor Day week-end. Plan to bring your guests and family, ages three to fie, for special fun.

Our Annual Book and Plant Sale is also that week-end on Saturday from 9-4 and Sunday from 9-2. If you are dividing perennials or starting bedding plants or vegetables, please put them in containers and bring them to the garage next to the library after 10 a.m. on Friday May 24th.

We will be at Emily's Spring Fling promoting a raffle for a beautiful brand new Bushnell telescope.

We recently received a wonderful huge donation of great children's books for all ages. Also, when Haven Books in Crosslake went out of business, they donated us all of their remaining Large Print books, display easels and shelf markers.

We are working on developing a web page for our library to keep you posted on happenings, hours, events, etc.

Three board members have retired: Rita Beard, Pat Oleson, and Michele Trostle. We will miss their hard work and all the hours they volunteered. We also appreciate your book donations and your support of the Outing Volunteer Library.

Be sure to come see us at all of these events and throughout the summer hours we're open.[[In-content Ad]]
