A local restaurant is partnering with a DeWitt County non-profit in the months ahead for a fundraiser.
Katrina Held with the Friends of the Library explains that they will be hosting a fundraiser with Texas Roadhouse in Forsyth in the near future. Until then, they have provided the Friends with free kids' meal and appetizer coupons to give out at this weekend's book sale fundraiser.
Held explains that her father, who is also part of the organization, made the connection with Texas Roadhouse just by chatting with the manager during dinner one night. The restaurant is already known for hosting fundraising nights for local groups and schools, so it was not hard to create a plan.
Held says in addition to a variety of literature genres, you will also find digital media like DVDs, CDs, and the occasional videogame at the fundraiser. Like books, all of those items are only one dollar.
The event takes place from 9 to 4 this Friday, and 9 to 3 on Saturday at the Warner Library. You can find piles of books organized by genre for very affordable prices. Get more information at vwarner.org/friends-of-the-library.
