Letter from the President:
Hello Friends!
I just can't bring into words how grateful I am to each and every one of you!! The SALAD LUNCHEON was a huge success!!! We had a gross revenue of $4,729.00 and net revenue of $4,620.20! What a record breaking number!! Thank you to Joanna and Kathy for putting this together once again! Thank you to everyone who volunteered there time at the salad luncheon! Thank you to everyone for making salads! Thank you to those who donated and purchased tickets! We could not have done this without each of you!
Thank you to our Budget and Audit Committee! I'll attach the proposed budget to be voted on at the next meeting.
I'm just so thankful to all of our friends that have continuously showed up to support our group and our new friends that we're making along the way!! We could not support the library the way we do without your support!!
The library is looking for volunteers from our friends for a few different events:
Stewart County Fair - September 26-27
Harry Potter Night - October 17
Halloween - October 25
Please reach out to Mrs. Riwa or Mrs. Barbara at the library for more details.
Also, I'm terribly sorry for the late edition. I wanted to make sure and include a copy of the September minutes and the proposed budgets that will be voted on at the November 10, 2025 meeting. I look forward to see you all there.
Ashley Hayes

Your help is needed in locating all Stewart County children from birth to age 5 to introduce them to the Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, STILL LOOKING FOR ELIGIBLE CHILDREN!! 20% of the children in this age group are still not signed up!
Once a child is signed up, each month a new, carefully selected book will be mailed in the child's name directly to their home. The registered children can look forward to new and exciting reading adventures from Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. There are currently 536 Stewart County children registered and receiving books but there are many more yet to locate and register. 2,356 have graduated from the program in Stewart County. Parents may also register their children online at http://www.governorsfoundation.org. If the child moves, it is vital that parents have the child's address changed in order to continue receiving the books.
Would you like to help this wonderful program? As little as $12 will pay for books for one child, for an entire year! Donations can be made out to Stewart County Friends of the Public Library, noting “Imagination Library” in the memo line, and mailed or delivered to the Stewart County Public Library, 102 Natcor Drive, Dover TN 37058. Stewart County Friends of the Public Library is a 501(c))(3) charitable organization and a partner agency of the United Way of the Greater Clarksville Region. Donations are tax- deductible.
Stewart County Friends of the Public Library
is a partner agency of the UWGN.
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world, it is the only thing that ever has."
-Margaret Mead
We, as a group, make a positive change in the lives of Stewart County children every time we sign-up another child for Imagination Library, pass on information regarding I.L. to someone else, or otherwise contribute to this positive program.
