JANUARY 1982
ANNUAL MEETING AND ELECTION - Wednesday, January 20, 7:30 p.m. at the Library. Come to help plan the new year.
Christmas at our library was merrier and busier than ever, according to Louise Mazerov, Hermosa librarian.
Forty-one children were guests at a Christmas party featuring films, crafts and refreshments (provided by FoL). December circulation was far higher this year than in the same period in 1980; up 1,798.
Adding to the festive atmosphere was our Christmas out-door lighting. FoL has traditionally sponsored Christmas decorations for the library and resumed this after a three year hiatus. Special thanks to our friendly firefighters who put up the lights.
The December book sale was another success, netting over $500. This sum includes a special personal donation from Gary Fritchoff of the Fire Department, who explains he was inspired by our friendliness. (After each book sale leftover paperbacks have been donated to our fire department. The personnel there enjoy the books, then recycle them once again to hospitals and convalescent facilities.)
Book and sales experts who donated brain power and muscle include: Chairman Belasco; Lorraine and John Hales; Pat and Myron Gazin; Charlotte and Bill Malone; Betty and Gordon Evans and Leon Ragonesi.
California Collection Chairman Betty Evans reports that she has ordered CALIFORNIA ARTISTS 1935 to 1956, by DeWitt Clinton McCall III. Watch for it.
