Just had to share…
Comment from a patron at a recent program
"Kudo’s for all the 'free' programs the library sponsors. When you’re unemployed, over 50, single, financially strapped, life doesn’t offer many opportunities to keep you motivated. You have no idea how much these outings/experiences make a difference. Something to look forward to, and a purpose to get out."
