Raffle Winners


Congratulations to this week's raffle winner, Christine! Hopefully the weather cools down soon, so you can enjoy your new camping hammock 😎


Last week's winner was kind enough to take a victory picture with her Fresh Monkee gift card and Berlin-Peck Memorial Library tote. Congrats again!

Next Week's Raffle


Our next raffle prize is a $25 gift card to Sliceworks. All raffles include a Berlin-Peck Memorial Library tote bag.


The raffle will take place on Thursday, August 8, so get your tickets in before then! There are currently 248 tickets in the virtual raffle basket.

Our First After-Hours Reader's Retreat


You're invited to our first ever After-Hours Reader's Retreat, happening next Friday, August 9 at 6:00 pm! This after-hours book club helps you carve out time to read without interruptions from daily life, and lets you enjoy the company of fellow book lovers… without the pressure of deadlines or discussions.


We’ll start with 30 minutes of social time (with snacks and mocktails!) followed by 45 minutes of quiet reading and a 15 minute wrap-up. Check out the awesome literary-themed mocktails we'll be serving!

If you're interested (and we hope you are!) please RSVP so we can plan for refreshments.
