Saturday, December 2, 12 noon to 3 p.m. at the Orcas Island Library

— from the Friends of the Orcas Island Public Library —

Lois Cornell serves tea to Rusty Diggs at the Friends of the Orcas Library Holiday Tea in 2012. Ida Rae McDonald looks on.

This is the 56th year that the Friends of the Library have thanked our Orcas community for their support and participation with a Holiday Tea. We’ll have tea and coffee in silver services, holiday punch, and homemade savories and sweets. Also live music by local musicians, plus a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus at 1:00 pm.

Care to participate on another level? We would love to have a plate of your cookies and/or crustless sandwiches to add to the others on the table. Just let the Library know, do your baking and bring the results to the Library on the day of the Tea.
