The Woodbine Public Library Needs Your Help!

The library is asking for your help!! Does anyone out there know of a local author, poet, artist, musician, etc. who would be willing to put on a program at the Woodbine Library sometime this summer? If you do please contact us, via phone, email, FB, Twitter or the Blog and let us know! We'd really like to do a few programs this summer at the library, maybe even on the front lawn if the weather cooperates!
