Latest News from the Friends of the New Oxford Area Library 

It has been a very busy year for the New Oxford Area Friends.

When you visit the library you will notice the new furniture. The Friends were instrumental in the acquisition of the new tables and chairs. These new furnishings are both practical and comfortable. They are easy to clean and sanitize and very easy to move about.

This year we were able to once again sponsor the Food Adventures Food Truck at our Annual ACL Book Sale. The food was delicious and a percentage of the profits were donated to the Friends of the NOAL. We will be sponsoring the Food Adventures Food Truck again in 2023.

Every year the Library has many summer programs to which the Friends donate. These donations, raised entirely by our fundraising activities and membership dues, help to provide opportunities for our youth during the summer both for fun and for learning.

We held a fundraiser at the Gettysburg Perkins Restaurant in the spring and are planning on doing this again. Look for information in the spring of 2023.

The Friends were excited to host a New Oxford Chamber of Commerce Mixer in May. What a wonderful opportunity to meet and greet the many merchants and business owners in our community.

A Paint Event was held at the Brookmere Winery in New Oxford in the fall. Twenty-two ladies were in attendance and painted a lovely snowman and snow covered tree. Food and wine were enjoyed by all present.
