Books, Beer, Cats and Summer!

Hello ,

I’ve said it a lot this year, and it’s still true – we miss you. But I hope to see many of you soon!

The next Final Draught will return in person May 18. It already feels like a reunion of old friends. The event returns to our longtime partners at Town Brewing Company – where there’s food, beer, lots of space and plenty of fresh air – and the speaker will be Sheri Lynch. You may know her as a syndicated radio personality, best-selling author, Verse & Vino emcee, a voracious reader and Library advocate…I also know her as a dear friend who always makes me think harder and laugh louder.

Sheri will share stories from her new book, Cooking with Cats: Favorite Recipes of Crazy Cat People and the Felines We Feast With, which features recipes submitted by “BOB & SHERI” listeners. I hope you'll join us.

The world is slowly returning to a new normal, and your Library is committed to balancing safety and services. We're looking ahead, and we hope you are too.

Thank you for your support,
