“Friends” Booth for Community Day

The “Friends” booth for Community Day on Saturday, September 17 at the South Park County Park Fair Grounds will be their usual game: “Pick a Pop, Find the Black Dot” for 25 cents. Kids from 2- to 12 years of age are to purchase a lollipop for 25 cents. If a black dot is at end of stick, they will win a prize. Kids may try as often as they would like. Anyone older than 12 can purchase a lollipop for 25 cents, but are not eligible for a prize.

The Friends, for the second year, will have something extra for anyone to play, if they wish. For any money donation to the Friends (for our library) a child or adult gives, they will have a chance to put their hand in a mysterious “HALLOWEEN BOX” and pull out a special gift. Why not give it a try!

Be sure to look for the “Friends” booth near S.P. library and township booths.
