The hot weather is here so take advantage of the great joy ice cream can bring and support Friends of Calvert Library at the same time! On Thursday, May 20 from 6pm-9pm, the Rita’s in Prince Frederick will be sharing their profits with the Friends. Scooper-of-the-night will be local celebrity, owner of Keep It Simple Computer Training and member of the Friends Executive Board Laura Allison. Part of the profit from the sale of ices, shakes, cones, whatever cool treat you love will go to the Friends so buy big!
Friends of Calvert Library have been a fundraising support system for the library for many years. Their biggest fundraisers are their used book sales a couple times each year. In fact, the next sale will be Saturday, May 22 from 9am-3pm at the Calvert Library Prince Frederick and you can find great deals on thousands of gently used books, plus movies, audio books and more.
In these careful economic times, the Friends have been able to supply the funding for library Teen and Tween nights, digital cameras to capture the fun at each library location, art and snack supplies for various events such as Gingerbread House Workshops, Teen Band Night, Fright Night, Kindergarten Art Day, Kids Just Want to Have Fun and more. Help them keep the funding flowing by buying a scoop or two at Rita’s!
For more information, call the Calvert Library Prince Frederick at 410-535-0291 or 301-855-1862.
