Even with the extra warm days, summer is fading into fall and League is getting ready for a busy season.
We kick off the program year with our Fall Membership Luncheon on Saturday, September 13 at 11:30a.m. This is your opportunity to meet Maria Carpenter, Director of Libraries for the city, and visit the new Pico Branch Library as we will be meeting in The Annex, the Library's community room. Virginia Avenue Park is located at the corner of Pico and Cloverfield, the Annex entry is on the north (Virginia Avenue) side of the building. Ms. Carpenter's topic is Meeting Community Needs: Libraries Today and Envisioning SMPL's Future. A flyer with details is here.
Lunch is pot luck, there is no charge, so take advantage of a free event to introduce a friend to the League. RSVP is not necessary but we would appreciate an email to league@lwvsantamonica.org just to have an idea on handouts, etc. |
FALL MEMBERSHIP MAILING
| |
If you are a member, you should be receiving a USPS mailing from the League soon, maybe today. All memberships expire September 30th, so it is time to renew. If none of your information has changed you can either put a check in the self addressed envelope or click on the Join link to the left and pay by Paypal. This doesn't require a Paypal account, just a credit or debit card. You don't need to send in the form, your membership will be automatically renewed.
If you are not yet a member, this is the ideal time to join. You can print out the form and join on line or join when you attend our Fall Membership Lunch (see above) or another of our fall events.
