The Marstons Mills Public Library Board President, Deborah Schilling, together with the Trustees and staff of the library, hosted a very successful 7th annual ‘Welcome Spring’ wine and beer tasting and silent auction last night-May 5. A Cinco de Mayo theme lent an air of fun to the event, held at the Marstons Mills Public Library on Main Street, Marstons Mills.
Over 70 were in attendance, and were served a variety of hot and cold Mexican style foods, complimentary Beer tasting from Cape Cod Beer-Cape Cod's own not-so-micro brewery. A real treat and surprise was the Beer Margarita-WOW! Beth Marcus, owner of Cape Cod Beer, said that recipe and many others are on their website www.CapeCodBeer.com I particularly enjoyed the Summer Ale-incredibly unique, with a clove flavor I really enjoyed. This from a 'fallen away' beer drinker! Also a Wine Tasting for wine afficiandos was enjoyed. A great night out to benefit my Marstons Mills non profit of choice.
The estimated $4000 raised will help with operational expenses of the library. For more information on the Library, its programs and staff, or to donate, go to www.mmpl.org
We are always looking for good volunteers, and trustee candidates to support the wide ranging services this library offers. We call it "The Little Library that makes a BIG difference". If you feel you might like to explore options to volunteer or serve on a committee, call me or the Library Director-Renee Voorhees.
