Tamworth Town Column: Friends of Cook Memorial Library annual meeting Sept. 25

The Friends of Cook Memorial Library work hard all year providing for “extras” not paid for by the town. These include fulfilling the director’s wish list, programs, staff training, museum passes and special projects including refurbishing of the children’s reading room. This year, the annual meeting will take place on Saturday Sept. 25, starting at 11:30 a.m. with a short business meeting, followed by a light lunch at 12:30 p.m. At 12.30 p.m. Sandwich author, historian and herbalist MJ Pettengill explores the connection between her own herbal practice and the story of Nellie, an Abenaki leader, prominent character in her books. All are welcome.

Peg Loughran, co-manager of the Tamworth Farmers’ Market says: "You might have to dodge a few raindrops, but never fear , we will be there to reward you handsomely in gorgeous items. The Community School, with their newly updated food farm stand now indoors, is sponsoring the most dangerous folk singer in these parts, Doug Hazard. So watch out, Thank you Lianne and her crew for bringing us Doug’s many awesome songs.”
