We need more elves!

Our annual morning with Santa program is coming up – and fast!

We’ll be meeting at the Essex Town Hall at 9:30 am to decorate the room with North Pole style.

We need special help with letter writing, snack distribution, and Santa arrival.

Please email Jessica (jbranciforte@essexlib.org) if you have a preference about which part of the program you would like to help with.

We can’t wait to see you again this year!

Urgent parade update!

The Park and Recreation department as changed the time that parade participants need to arrive!
We have been asked to arrive at 11:00 am in the Town hall parking lot this Saturday, the 19th. Any later and we’ve been told we might miss the parade departure!

We’ll have time to decorate and get our gold ready to pass out once we’re situated on our float.

Check out the fabulous pictures of our meeting on Monday, where Jr. Friends prepared our decorations, costumes and publicity for the big shindig on Saturday.

We’ve been invited to ride in the Essex St. Patrick’s Day Parade!

To prepare for this event, we’ll get together for our monthly meeting on Monday March 14th at 4 pm in the library program room. There we will create a banner and some signs for our float and get ready for the parade this weekend!!

If you’re a junior friend and would like to join us for the parade, please meet at the Essex Town Hall at 11:30 on Saturday morning, March 19th. Try to remember the permission slip that you received in the mail if you can!

Can’t to see you there!
