12th April Cake Sale and Pop Up Café

27/3/2014

“Our pre-Easter Cake Sale and Café in the Library is coming up on April 12th 10am - 1pm  and we are looking for volunteers to man the café and to bake some cakes.  These sales are a regular source of income for the Friends and we use the money to keep the Library’s stock of books updated.  Horizons Bookshop in the Village are really great, they get the books for us and let us have them with a reasonable discount and it keeps the business in the village – so Burnham wins all round.  If you are not a baker, do come along and sample and buy, and even borrow a book, CD, DVD or two!

I was talking to somebody in the village this week who was asking about the children’s activities in the Library and was pleased to tell them about the wide range of things which our staff and volunteers offer for children of all ages, both paid and unpaid activities.  I was reminded of the conversation yesterday morning, when I was in the Library  and listened to the Bounce and Rhyme session and heard some rhymes and tunes from my own childhood (and some new ones!).  I wondered how many of those babies giggling with their mothers will take those rhymes on and be teaching them to their children, in the Library, in years to come.  It made my morning!”
