FOCPL May Meeting Information

May 1, 2023

Friends of the Orange County Public Library

Dear Friends,

The staff appreciation luncheon we hosted for National Library Week was a great success! The staff enjoyed a variety of delicious pizzas, salads, and dessert, and we were able to present each of them with a small appreciation gift. Thanks to Vice President Melissa Bourbon Ramirez for coordinating the luncheon! Thanks also to everyone who helped out at the event.

Our next meeting will be held on Thursday, May 11th at 7:00 pm in the library’s meeting room. There is also a Zoom option (link below) for those who prefer to attend virtually. Here is the agenda:
