Get Involved! Be on the Friends Board!

Friends of Wadsworth Library is looking for individuals to fill a couple open positions on its board of officers. This wonderful organization, funded by annual membership dues and fundraising activities, uses its financial resources to support library programs for all ages and to provide special materials and equipment not covered by the Library’s annual operating budget. The time commitment is minimal - a quick monthly meeting and an hour or so per month to work on a project. If you're interested, please contact Friends' president Lisa Kime at lisa.kime@communitybankna.com
