Here’s to another successful summer for the Friends of the Radium Library Pop-up Book/Puzzles sales.
We had our best summer ever, with sales of $500+.
One hundred percent of these funds will be going to Radium Hot Springs Public Library for equipment to support their Children’s Programming such as Little Lambs and Morning Storytime.
We would like to thank all of our volunteers who moved books to and from our storage locker, provided courtesy of Cris Leonard Storage
As well as those who helped us set up, especially Radium Brewing for providing the space and sun tent for our summer Market on Main sales.
Thank you also to Erin P. for providing a table at the Marquee Market in Radium.

Lastly, thank you to our great Valley community for your ongoing support through book/puzzle donations, purchases and cash donations.
IT REALLY DOES TAKE A VILLAGE💚❤️💜
