GPL would like to thank our major SRP donors: The Friends of the Library for funding many of our Family Fun Day performers, and the Greyson James Steyer Memorial Fund for all of their support and assistance with programming and purchasing prizes. We appreciate everyone who made this summer a success whether by reading or attending one of our many programs. We couldn’t have done it without our loyal patrons!
