Holiday re-gift fundraiser — Ramara Centre branch
If you have an item that has been sitting around the house and not getting used, please feel free to donate it to the library for our fundraiser. Remember, one person’s junk is another person’s treasure. All funds raised will assist in supporting children and youth programs.
Do you still have to buy that special someone a present? We encourage you to drop by the branch during the month of December to see if you can purchase that perfect gift.
Holiday hours of operation: closed Saturday, Dec. 22 to Wednesday, Dec. 26, and Saturday, Dec. 29 to Tuesday, Jan. 1.
