Mineola Memorial Library Notes
Before we get into upcoming events, the Mineola Memorial Library would like to thank Mr. Mike for putting us in touch with Mr. Ken who has a crew with a bucket truck. The bucket crew descended like ninjas and restrung our flag pole, followed by Mr. Scotty checking Mz. Mary’s knots and improving them so Old Glory could resume her place at the top of the flag pole. We thank all of them for helping us with this effort. To them it may seem like a little thing, but to us it is a big deal.
October is quickly coming to an end. If you haven’t gotten a chance to stop by the library, please come visit and vote for your favorite decorated pumpkin. If you absolutely cannot stop by, visit our Facebook page and vote for your favorite there. Staff is going for bragging rights. We’ll post the results on Oct. 29.
