HAPPY VETERANS DAY!

Happy Veterans Day! Don't forget to buy your poppy and wear it in support of all those who serve/served our country.

The Green Free Library is open today (Friday 11/11/11). Stop in anytime between 10:00 AM and closing. We close at 5:00 PM on Friday's for all those who haven't been kicked out at the last minute. While you're here, take a look at the WWII Veterans memorial next to the library.

Speaking Stones is a poem written by Wellsboro's own, David Bliss(WW II Vet), especially for the WW II Dedication.

The "Tree of Life" is an original work designed and created by sculptor Gareth Curtiss of Olympia, WA. A replacement for Wellsboro's long lost "World War II Honor Roll, the project was organized by the joint efforts of Betty Coolidge Frazier and Joan Spencer Hart in the late 90's. With the assistance and support of friends, family and townsfolk of the WWII vets the memorial was dedicated on November 10, 2002, and stands today to remind us of their service, "Lest We Forget".

Please return your donation to The Green Free Library at 134 Main Street in Wellsboro, PA 16901. Suggested amounts are on the letter, but donations of any amount are accepted and appreciated. (And TAX-DEDUCTIBLE!!)You don't have to be a member to donate and recieve the deduction, just include 2011-2012 in the memo area of your check or money order and provide a name and mailing adress for your receipt.
