We’re overjoyed with the success of our online auction and October 28th benefit party. Huge thanks for all who donated and bid in the auction and attended the party!

Guest of Honour Helgi Soutar spoke movingly about what the Atwater Library means to her and toasted our organization.

Emcee Terry Mosher regaled the crowd with a story about first visiting when he was a young boy living nearby.

And President Bruce Bolton thanks the many donors and volunteers who are responsible for the organization’s vitality.
