Spring Book Sale

Our Spring Book Sale was a great success. We had fun weekend and enjoyed the music from the free Blues concert in Bainbridge Park. In total we raised $2158.95. The raffle sale brought in $452.00! Our final book sale of 2026 will be Labor Day weekend. Details will be forthcoming.

Raffle Prize Winners

The winners of our raffle were Pat Long & Linda Thornquist Stumpf. Pat Long is the Co-Chair of the LIT LOVERS book group at the Presbyterian Church in Fort Bragg. Linda Thornquist Stumpf is the treasurer of the Friends of the FB Library! Both women have generously donated their winning prizes (Kindles) back to the library! The 2 Kindles will be used as prizes for our summer reading program. We would like to thank Linda and Pat for their continued support of our library.

Other Fundraising

On Monday April 20th Noyo River Grill sponsored a fundraiser to benefit the Friends of the Fort Bragg Library. Music was provided by Sean Hathorn. Last week Gabriel Medina the Owner of Noyo River Grill presented us with a check for $550! Thank you to the Medina Family and their continuing support of our library.

The next restaurant fundraiser will be at Café 1 on Wednesday September 30th.
