Walpole Library wants your gently used books!  Bring paperbacks, hardcovers, cds, dvds, records and childrens books to the Walpole Town Library on Fridays, Saturdays, or Mondays.  For information, call the library at 603- 756-4224 or Cheryl Hoffman at 603-756-4066.  To donate bookcases, call Carol Malnati at 603-75-9537.  Sponsored by Friends of the Library and proceeds go to the Walpole and North WalpoleTown Libraries.  Collecting continues through Wednesday, October 16.  

Barbara Dretzin sent this inoformation regarding a Writer’s Group.  Sounds like fun.  The idea of a deadline makes a lot of sense to me since I can find lots of ways to procrastinate – sometimes, even going as far as washing windows! – Lil

Do you like to write, but feel you have no audience?  Do you have personal stories to tell, perhaps stories about your childhood or other events that your family would like to know?  Stories you’ve meant to write down but have never gotten around to?

David Longssmith asked me to share. – Lil

Thanks to Peg Dion for sending this information. – Lil

Start this holiday season with inspiration!  Come to the “Showcase of Holiday Tables” at the Walpole Town Hall on Saturday, October 19^th from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.  There will be several tables featuring creative ideas for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s celebrations.  A light lunch of home made sandwiches and desserts is included; you may bid on silent auction items donated by local business and purchase gift boxed amaryllis bulbs and Spring flowering bulbs.

This will be the Women of Walpole’s only fundraiser this year, and it will allow them to support several worthy local charities. Tickets are available at Galloway Real Estate, Main Street, Walpole, NH, from members, and at the door the day of the event.  For more information call 756-3997 or 756-9580.  Come!  Help make our grandest endeavor ever a success!

Susan Vose wanted to be sure that readers of The Walpolean heard about this. – Lil

Carol Christian, long time volunteer for several Walpole non-profits, is leaving us for snow-less Seattle. A farewell reception for Carol will be held at:

There will be a guest book, money tree, card basket, punch and cookies.

Please come to say thank you as well as good bye. 

I forgot to add her picture!  So sorry – Lil

I tried to keep up to date with the happenings of the week ahead but I have lost the ability to keep on top of the calendar.  (If I can keep my calendar current I am lucky.)  I have to confess that the best I can do is put the information out here and you have to add to your own calendar as you see something that interests you.  Fair enough?  – Lil
