Last month of "summer freedom"

2006-08-01T13:07:00.000-07:00

Ah, August--heat, swimming, popsicles--and getting ready for "back to school!" Guess what? The library is having a School Supply Drive all month! We hope lots of you will get involved and bring us your new items to donate. The past couple of years we've had a great response to this community effort (thanks, Pahrump!) and, hopefully, this year will be no different. This time we'll be giving all the proceeds from the drive to local area schools, for distribution to their teachers for use in the classrooms. Just our way of helping out and showing our educators that we realize what an important job they have: the education of the leaders of tomorrow! Won't you do your part? Bring your donations to the library anytime during our regular hours.
