Book Sale - Monkton Town - Wide Event

What a great day in Monkton! The town was hopping from the fire station on past the library to the church and down our country roads. People were visiting with neighbors and friends and supporting local groups. This was the scene later in the morning here at the library. Thanks to all who stopped by and supported the library.
