Thank You from the Director


Dear Library Friends,

Book cover of Mrs. Kennedy and Me by Clint Hill and Lisa McCubbinThank you for your amazing support of the "Mrs. Kennedy and Me" program presented by Clint Hill and Lisa McCubbin. With all 200 chairs in the meeting room filled, it was an impressive crowd for the authors. Everyone was so patient waiting to get checked in and to meet the authors. Thank you for helping to make An Evening in Camelot: The Kennedy Years a night to be remembered.

The Library would like to invite you to another author visit on May 15, 2012. Sign up for her talk, stay for the book discussion, and experience another author at the Library

Yvonne Bergendorf - Director
