BLUE RIDGE CEMETERY CLEAN UP
23 May 2012

WEDNESDAY MAY 23, 7 PM

The community needs volunteers to help with the spring clean up of the cemetery. An hour or 2 of your time is all they ask- many hands make work light.

Coffee and cake will follow the work bee.

All volunteers welcome
Please bring a rake
When the work's all done
We'll have coffee and cake!

15 Year Anniversary
30 April 2012

15 Year Anniversary
May 16, 1:30-3
 
 15 years since the Community Library opened their doors to the public in Blue Ridge. Much has changed, yet much remains the same –we are still ‘Celebrating Life and Learning’ , still reading books and  using computers for fact and fiction- but oh, how those books and computers are different today.
 
We marked the occasion with cake and coffee on Wednesday, May 16. Jeannette whipped up some tasty cupcakes and decorated a presentation platter for us. Though our party was small, there was lots of laughter and memories.
