*Please note this is the same program being conducted at the Ruth Culver Community Library, so participants may sign up and turn in BINGO cards at either library and may go back and forth for prizes!*
All patrons have an opportunity to “Build a Better World” by donating canned food for the Sauk Prairie Area Food Pantry. The library will be collecting unexpired cans all summer long and donating them at a celebration event, Monday, August 14. The “We CAN Festival” will take place at the new food pantry building 821 Industry Rd. at 6:00PM so save the date!
Thank you to Piggly Wiggly of Sauk City for generously agreeing to match the canned donations!
