Ahoy, Mateys! Rockin’ Ron, the Friendly Pirate, sails into the Mark Skinner Library on Thursday, June 27, 2013, at 10:30 a.m. to kick off “Dig into Reading,” the library’s Summer Reading Program. Come aboard for a rollicking good time with Pirate music goofy enough to delight young scalliwags and roguish enough to keep adults from walking the plank. No map needed to dig up a treasure chest of fun. Free program, open to the public. Children must be accompanied and supervised by adult caregivers. For more information call the library at 362-2607. Mark Skinner Library: Manchester’s Public Library, 48 West Rd.

July 3rd through August 11th – Wednesdays through Sundays

Four local charities will share in the gate receipts at the
Vermont Summer Festival Horse Show, from July 3rd through August 11th
at the Harold Beebe Farm, north of Manchester on Route 7.

They are the Mark Skinner Library, the Friends Foundation for MEMS,
the Community Food Cupboard and the Community Sharing Project.

Our main responsibility is to man the gates for the six weeks
of the VSF Horse Show and collect the admissions from spectators.

And we get to keep 100% of what we collect !

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

If you can spare just 3 hours of time, once or preferably twice during the show dates
please email horseshow@markskinnerlibrary.org and let us know when you are available.

(3-hour blocks are from 9 a.m. to noon OR from noon to 3 p.m.)

Wednesdays through Sundays only…volunteers are not needed Mondays and Tuesdays.

Please check your calendar, and come out and watch some of the best show jumping action in New England…..and feel good about helping four local non profits raise some much-needed funds.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
