On May 7th, Family Book Club gathered to celebrate the many volunteers and friends who actively support our mission. Jenni Zimmer, Board President, conveyed her heartfelt appreciation to everyone there for their gifts of time, participation and funds. She then had the pleasure of introducing longtime FBC volunteer and Ann Arbor District Library director, Josie Parker, who told a story that matched the warmth, wit and good will in the room. When it came time for drawing the door-prize winners, first grader Henry K. delighted us with his showmanship. Before leaving the stage, Henry expressed pride in raising nearly $200 for FBC through his school’s “Read for a Cause” effort. The gorgeous quilt created by Rita Stark, Ann Antonuk and Marilyn Lange made a perfect backdrop for the event. All in all, the event was a relaxed way to connect and reconnect with our supporters. Thanks to everyone who came. We hope to see you again soon!
