Busy July in the Courtyard

Busy July in the Courtyard

We hope you could join us for some of the great things happening in the Library courtyard this July. We had our Friends of the Library Annual Book Sale, on one of the steamiest days of the summer! Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and energy to make this book sale happen, Friends and other volunteers! Thanks, also, to those who stopped by to browse and buy books. Altogether the Friends raised $2,300, which will be used to fund Library programs through the year. 

We also hosted the Bridgton Community Band in our courtyard on two beautiful evenings. We hope everyone enjoyed the fantastic music. Thank you to the Bridgton Community Band members for coming to our Main Street location and playing for the audience seated as well as those strolling by. We have heard wonderful compliments from all.

Ideas for other community events that would benefit from our courtyard ambiance and location? Just let us know at bpldirector@bridgton.lib.me.us.

Happy Summer!
