Thank You Platinum Bank!

Another local group has joined the "2012 in 2012" Campaign!

Thanks to and its employees for their $250 contribution to the "2012 in 2012" Campaign. They are the latest group to join in our campaign to raise enough money to buy 2,012 books for the Washington County Library system this year. 

We have a $10,000 challenge grant. With this latest contribution, we've raised $3,000. So $7,000 more to go. That $20,000 will be enough to buy 2,012 books. 

Part of our strategy is to get 16 groups to each raise $250 (or more).  Do the math:  that would mean $4,000. We have 5 groups so far (did I thank the Woodbury Rotary already?) — could you put together a group and make it 6?

As you may know — our libraries have , so the "2012 in 2012" campaign will help get 2012 new books on the shelves — particularly children's books and large print books for adults with limited vision.
