Friends Annual meeting is scheduled for Saturday, June 25 at 9:00 am at the First Baptist Church in Port O’Connor. Following this time for Friends updates and visions will be a 10:00 am meeting for all who have a special interest in joining our Advisory Council. The POC community is welcome and encouraged to attend both meetings. Also, it’s time once again to renew “Friends” memberships and get some updates on what’s happening in the quest for our bigger, better library.
