Volunteer Appreciation Party

Come celebrate the many behind-the-scenes volunteers who make Tilton Library the community jewel that it is.  Along with the people who serve on the Tilton Library Board of Trustees, the Friends of Tilton Library and the new Tilton Library Space Needs Assessment Ad Hoc Committee, other generous people shelve books, help with Monday Night Music, deliver books to homebound patrons, fix broken desks, lamps, signs and more, weed the garden, help set up programs, recycle magazines and repair books.  Each year we salute these fine folks with a party, complete with free food and an old fashioned Yankee Swap.  All are welcome to this free event.  Come meet the volunteers and learn about volunteer opportunities at Tilton.  Please sign up at the adult desk for this fun event.
