Celebrating Community

Friends of Red Hook Library inaugurates LEGO drive.

The first meeting of the resuscitated Friends of the Red Hook Library was held last Saturday at the library.  Our first project is begun. Once a month the library hosts a Lego group. Kids who sign up come in and create all kinds of things out of Legos. Thing is, the library could use more blocks for the kids – so we have started a LEGO DRIVE! If you have grown up kids who don’t need the blocks anymore, it would be highly appreciated if you could bring them to Sandra at the library. If you would like your gift acknowledged publicly, shoot an email over to us at the Star-Revue (george@redhookstar.com), and we will print it in the paper, as well as the name of someone you’d like to have acknowledged with your gift.

This drive is ongoing – whenever the library is open (which now includes Saturdays), you make make your donation. And many thanks!
