This past year has been a successful one for the Friends of the Williston Park Library. The Friends were able to give each child a book at the start of the summer reading program. We are in our second year of providing free passes for the Long Island Children’s Museum and the Cradle of Aviation. We hosted several free programs including Mike from “A Photographer’s Place,” Marty Adler – Talks of Brooklyn, Barber Shop Quartet and Merilee Melodies.
The Friends will be making a donation toward the building of a library in Southern Ethiopia from funds raised at the Williston Street Fair. Todd Schlitt, former children’s librarian, has contacted us in regard to this endeavor.
All current officers will continue in their current positions:
Carolyn Stalters, president
Carolyn Eckhardt, secretary
Barbara Dwyer, treasurer
Marie Meagher, programs
Eleanor Paris, publicity
Grace McMahon, membership
Our membership drive is currently under way. Please consider being a “friend.”
