Opinion: Appreciation for success in recent sale

To the editor: 

The recent Annual Jewelry and Accessory Sale held by the Friends of the Mattapoisett Library sale was a tremendous success thanks to the support and generosity of the community.

Thank you to all those that donated items, volunteered their time, and participated in the sale.

A special shout out to Caroline Percy Marcoux, Goldsmith/Graduate Gemologist of Fairhaven, who donated her time appraising, repairing and cleaning our fine jewelry, and to Village Signs of Mattapoisett for the banner.

A hundred percent of the proceeds will go to supporting library programs for children, teens, and adults, including the purchase of all museum, zoo, and park passes.

The Friends will be accepting donations of jewelry and accessories (in good condition) throughout the year, or until further notice. Please drop off your donations at the Mattapoisett Library circulation desk. Everyone's generosity supports the Library.

Thank you, and see you in 2025.

Sincerely,

The Board of the Friends of the Mattapoisett Library

Frances-Feliz Kearns Acting Secretary
