 Plant Sale at the Library
Cedar Mill Community Library is having a plant sale! Bedding and container
plants, perennials, geraniums, herbs, vegetables and more will
be available on Saturday, May 20, 2006 from 9 to 4. The sale will
be held in front of the library, located at the intersection of Cornell
and Saltzman. This event is organized by Cedar Mill Community Library volunteers
and supported by the Cedar Mill Garden Club. Garden Club members
will have perennials in three-gallon pots at the sale.
The Cedar Mill Community Library Association raises funds for
support of library operations. 20% of the library’s operating budget is covered
through fundraising (events such as the Plant sale, individual & business
donations, Second Edition sales, used book sales, etc.) because the funds
received from the county provide only 80% of the budget needed to maintain
the current levels of service to the community (hours open, staffing, books & materials,
etc.) If we are not successful at raising the 20% it could lead to cuts
in service.
To contribute plants or help with the plant sale, please contact Gloria
Lee, library board member and sale coordinator at glee@portlandchinesegarden.org or call Dawn Anderson at 503-644-0043 x121.
