We are gearing up for our next fundraiser! Last year we had our first Live and Silent Auction which was a lot of fun and the most successful fundraiser we have had, so we just have to do this again this year. The Live and Silent Auction is scheduled for Saturday, December 1, 2007 starting at 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the old gym at Northern New Mexico College campus. Our own Board Member, Donald Martinez, Jr. is also a professional auctioneer and has agreed to help out the Library again. Soooo - Local Artists, and Community Members, we need your help again this year. Could you please donate any items (gift certificates or simply bought items from local businesses) or artwork that you think would be good for this great cause. If you are interested in making a donation, please contact the Library at 581-4608. We appreciate any type of donation. All items need to be brought into the Library by Thursday, November 29, 2007 by 5:30 p.m.
