We are geared up and ready for another fantastic summer in Naples! We kicked it off with our 2nd Annual Duck Drop. Thank you for everyone who volunteered and participated in this successful event. We've shared some photos from the Duck Drop below. Our Friends group is growing and the volunteers are helping so much with fundraising for the Naples Public Library. The July meetings of Friends of the Naples Public Library will be held at NPL on Monday, July 9, and Monday, July 21, at 1:00 p.m. Please email Diane Monaco for more information or if you have questions. The Naples Public Library will be closed on Friday, July 4 to celebrate the holiday. We regret to inform you that we will not have a float in the parade this year. We have not been able to secure a volunteer with a vehicle to pull the float on the 4th of July.
Please note that we are looking for volunteers to serve as hosts during the Library House Tour on August 7. If you or someone you know is able to help out, please contact me at your earliest convenience via email.
Thanks for checking out what's happening this summer at the Naples Public Library!
Thank you, Christine Powers, Director |
