UNION — It’s that time of year again — time for the Friends of the Union County Carnegie Library’s biggest fundraiser of the year.

The Friends of the Library will hold its annual book sale fundraiser Thursday, April 25-Saturday, April 27 at the Lions Club building, located at 134 East Main St., Union.

The sale will run from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Thursday and Friday and from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. on Saturday.

Friends of the Library members will receive 50 percent off all purchases, and memberships will be available at the sale.

“This is the Friends’ largest annual fundraiser, and all proceeds go directly toward supporting the Union County Carnegie Library,” said Friends of the Library President Kelli Johnston.

The Friends of the Library provide the resources for additional programming, much needed equipment, support for children’s summer reading, and special events throughout the year. The group includes members of the community who support, extend and promote the services of the library while enjoying themselves. Activities are held throughout the year to provide members of the community with a way to get to know the library, staff and other people in the community with similar interests.

Anyone interested in helping with the sale or who would like more information can contact fol@unionlibrary.org.

Staff Writer Derik Vanderford can be reached at 864-427-1234, ext. 29, or by email at dvanderford@civitasmedia.com.

Union County is sponsoring the Meansville Riley Water Company's application for a $350,000 grant through the South Carolina Rural Infrastructure Authority. The grant would enable the company to install approximately 31,000 linear feet of new water main on eight different roadways and improve water quality. If requested to do so, should the county sponsor more such grant applications by other local water companies?
