November : Upcoming Events

Well Halloween is over.  We gave out candy to tons of kids last night.  Chance counted over 2000 people, kids and adults, who passed by the library!

Now it's time to look to November and, beyond that, Christmas!!  Hard to believe isn't it?

The library is hosting two events in November.

The first is a Holiday Craft Show and Recipe Exchange.  We bring any crafts that we have made to show off and bring dishes along with copies of the recipes for a potluck supper.  It's a lot of fun!  We normally get lots of new ideas for gifts and food.  Come to the library Tuesday, November 5th at 5:30 p.m. and join in the fun.

Second, in recognition of the fiftieth anniversary of the Kennedy assassination, the Friends of the Franklin County Library will present "Mike Howard's Reflections of November 22, 1963".  Mr. Howard is a Native Texan and retired Secret Service agent.  He was assigned to protect Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Ford and their families.  He will speak on the history of the Secret Service, provide insight on four presidential assassinations and will discuss the Kennedy assassination.  We are pleased to offer this program Saturday November 9th at 6:30 p.m. at the Mt. Vernon Music Hall.
