The Stoughton Branch Library is hosting a fundraiser on Thursday, June 15 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Being held just outside the library will be a BBQ and book sale, as well as donated raffle items and a silent auction.
The BBQ is set to be either a hamburger or hotdog and a drink for $5. Draws for the raffle and silent auction will take place at 7:30 p.m.
A book sale is being held in conjunction with the BBQ, but is available to be browsed through Tuesday, June 13, from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. On Thursday, June 15, the book sale is being held between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. as well as from 2 p.m. through to the end of the BBQ at 8 p.m. The book sale will also continue through Friday, June 16, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Their efforts are being directed towards the many programs the Stoughton Library hosts: Preschool Story Hour, Children’s and Adult Crafts and Programs, Aboriginal Storytelling, Teas, and more. The funds raised will also go towards craft supplies, as well as new books, movies, and games.
“Our success results from the loyal dedication and hard work of many volunteers, businesses and foundations who support the library,” Erin Archibald, Chair of the Stoughton Library Board, explained.
Thus, with the help of the community, the library can remain a hub of various forms of education and entertainment in Stoughton.
