Giving Tree:
Starts on Monday, November 26th @ Bacon Library thru December 21st.
The cold weather is here as our famiies gather together to give thanks.
The Bacon Library "Giving Tree" has been put up so anyone can help decorate
it with donations of new hats, gloves, mittens and scarves to be given to local charities.
If you are handy with knitting and/or crocheting this is a wonderful way to contribute.
Last year the combined totals of donations given, were exactly 224 items.
Bring your donation down to Bacon Library and place them on the tree,
please remember new items please.

Pets Need Comfort Too: @ Bacon Library
Starts on Monday, November 26th thru December 21st.
The cooler weather is here, and many pets are in a great need
of used but clean blankets, towels, sheets, washcloths, pet beds,
leashes, collars, pet dishes and yes bird cages among local shelters
and veterinarians for animals. A warm and fuzzy blanket or towel
helps ease a broken wing in transport, helps comfort a pet after surgery,
or cradles a kitten for bottle feeding. Please bring in any usable clean item
and place it in the box by the showcase before December 21st, and we will
make sure they get distributed. Last year we collected 135 items total.
