It takes a lot of work to successfully host a library event, especially large-scale ones like the kick-off party of the Summer Reading Program. Each year, the library relies on teen volunteers and members of the Friends of the Library to help make sure all attendees have a good time.

  • Setting up events (e.g. Book Sale, Puzzle Exchange, etc.)
  • Posting event flyers on public community event boards
  • Social media content creation
  • Sorting and moving donated books
  • Maintaining the Memorial StoryWalk on the LIbrary’s property
  • Restocking and maintaining the Little Free Library
  • …and so much more!
