The Montrose Adult School is coordinating a series of five walking tours of Montrose, based on on the brochures created by the Historical Society and the Motnrose Restoration Committee. Tours are held on Sundays from 5/6 to 6/10 (excluding Memorial Day weekend) and begin at 1pm at St. Paul's Hall with an overview of the section to be covered that day. Each tour is $10, which benefits the three sponsoring organizations (the Historical Society, the Montrose Restoration Committee, and the Center for Anti-Slavery Studies); or you can take all 5 tours for $45. Please see the Montrose Adult School description for more information.

For the fourth year, you have a chance to win up to $50,000 and help the Library Building Fund at the same time. Tickets for the 2012 Library Lottery Raffle are available for $100 each. Tickets can be purchased by individuals, families, or groups. A ticket gives 50 chances to win one (or more!) of 50 prizes. Prize amounts range from $500 (25 awarded) to a first prize of $50,000 if all tickets sell (if not all tickets sell, the amounts are adjusted accordingly). Print the ticket application or pick one up at any county library. Your ticket will be mailed to you. For more information, view the application, call 570-278-1881, or email mkhjr@aol.com.

The drawing will be held at the Harford Fairgrounds (see map) at 1pm on Saturday, July 21, 2012, at a free picnic hosted by Cabot Oil & Gas. Music will be provided by the Endless Mountains Trio beginning at 11am. You do not need to be present to win--all prizes will be mailed and winners will be posted here by 7/26.
