FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY CHALLENGES THE COMMUNITY TO PARTICIPATE IN $BUCKS FOR BOOKS$

The Friends of the Library wil donate $1,000 to the Bluffton Public Library to purchase new books this winter.

This will kick off the library's $Bucks for $Books campaign to offset the reduction in state funding to the library budget this coming year. The library hopes to raise $5,000 by the end of 2010. That is the approximate amount the budget for new books was cut. This early Christmas present from the Friends will jump start this fund raising drive.

MJS 9

We're guessing MJS are initials of the driver. But, for the 8, we don't know the meaning. We'll tell you this much: the plate is on a Buick. Viewers please help us identify this owner.
