We would like to take this opportunity to thank the many people and businesses that helped make the Eagle Rock Community Day at Blue Ridge Vineyard to benefit the Eagle Rock Library such a success.

This event was once again 100% profit for the Eagle Rock Library, due to the generous donations of so many wonderful people. We were able to raise $2000.00 to help the library because the residents of the Eagle Rock community came together and made this day a success. We would like to thank the library patrons, parents, children, friends and neighbors for supporting us. We are very grateful.

We will have another community fundraiser on Sunday, October 7, at Blue Ridge Vineyard, from 3 to 8pm. Additional details on that event will be coming soon.

Once again, thank you so very much for supporting our library.
