Thank You Library & Copy Room Volunteers!

 

We enjoyed thanking our wonderful volunteers at an appreciation breakfast in the library on April 5th. A big thank you to all of the library and copy room volunteers! Your contribution of time and expertise is greatly appreciated. One special volunteer, Billie Gurkin, has been volunteering for 15 years in the library! Her youngest grandchild will be moving on to WRMS next year, but we hope to keep her here at FTE!
