The 26th Annual Montrose Blueberry Festival will be held Friday, August 5th and Saturday, August 6th on the Village Green and Library Lawn. Mary Jo Bayer, Ellen O'Malley, and Marianne Meyer are chairing the Festival this year, and they're hard at work setting up blueberry food and fun for the celebration. This year's quilt pattern is a multi-colored Snowball. A huge, fully-furnished dollhouse has been donated (you may remember it from the Auction!) and will also be raffled. Chances for the quilt and the dollhouse are available now ($1 each, 3 for $2, 7 for $5, or 15 for $10). Festival proceeds support county library services and the county Historical Society.

Don't bother with that garage sale--the Blueberry Festival's White Elephant sale needs your unwanted treasures (except clothing and exercise equipment). You can drop them off at any time (for directions to the barn where items are being collected, call 278-1881, stop by the Library, or visit susqcolibrary.org/white_elephant.htm).

As always, volunteers are eagerly sought, as are donations of crafts, preserves, and good used books. Please call the library at 278-1881 or visit susqcolibrary.org.
