Candy Jar Winner!

Congratulations to Donna Robbins who guessed the closest number of candies in the Candy Jar at the Library! The Candy Jar has been a regular contest for several years...the Friends fill the jar with candy (after counting every piece) and then visitors to the Library can make guesses as to how many pieces there are. This year there were 1,830 pieces!
The Friends would like to extend a special *thank you* to Denise Smith for coordinating, counting and preparing the Candy Jar!
Donna Robbins and her children Quinn Kenneally and Ian Kenneally.
