New spin to annual Christmas party
1:46 PM EST 12/25/08
For the past three years, the Friends group at the Hampton Illinois Library (Dallas Public Library branch) has hosted a Christmas party for the children who use the library. As part of the party, the Friends and local donators buy new books which the children get to select with the help of Santa.
This year, we added special guest readers. These readers included a city councilman, a member of the Dallas Parks Board and a local justice of the peace. They read stories in English & Spanish. There were about 100 children & adults for the party and every child got a new book with books left over for next year.
There are photos of this party at the Friends of the Dallas Public Library website under Friends Activities.
