December is upon us and 2008 is racing to an end. Below average temperatures and early snowfall reminds us that winter will be here officially in a few weeks. On the bright side, the weather helps get us in the holiday spirit. It is also time for many annual events \u2013 governmental agencies reorganizing, Tyrone Yuletyme Christmas Celebration, and, yes, planning ahead for next year\u2019s big events. The Tyrone-Snyder Public Library participates in all three of these.
\nOn Tuesday, December 2, the Library Board of Directors held its Annual Meeting. At this time, the Board said farewell to two board members: Fred Thomas and Mike McNelis. Thank you both for your dedication to the library and its mission in our community. Your activities on behalf of the library have contributed to the growth of the library\u2019s building and to the services provided by the library to our community. Thank you, Fred and Mike, for a job well done.
\nOn Saturday, December 6, the library will join in the Tyrone Yuletyme Christmas Celebration. We will offer our patrons the chance to save time baking by offering Christmas cookies for sale, an opportunity to shop new or nearly-new items for Christmas gifts at our Christmas Gift Yard Sale, and, at the same time supporting the Library. These sales both take place in the Library\u2019s Community Room beginning at 10 a.m. Charlotte Albright will offer Christmas stories for the young from 1 to 2 p.m.
\nTickets are now available for the Library\u2019s 2009 spring concert. The May 2 concert, entitled Save the Last Dance for You, features not one but TWO classic groups: The Marcels and Charlie Thomas and the Drifters. Unlike many other things in today\u2019s economy, prices for the concert tickets remain the same at $30 \u2013 a bargain for wonderful night of entertainment. Tickets are available at Kopp Drugs (Tyrone store only), Bressler\u2019s Food Mart, and, of course, at the Library. These tickets will make great stocking stuffers for those music lovers on your list.
\nWhether you stop in for cookies, Christmas gifts, or a story, we look forward to seeing you at the library soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
