[Sca-librarians] FW: [SCA-Herbalist] Library Challenge

[Nancy Shapiro]

My cousin bakes a chocolate cake and brings it into his local library for 
the librarians every National Library Week.  Any one out there from 
Wisconsin? <g>

Apologies if this has already hit this list.  (Although if it hasn't, it 
ought to have...)

>  2. Tell them you are in the SCA and/or into historic re-creation.
>  3. Make a donation. It doesn't have to be big. It can be a nickel. Or
>  a quarter. Look under the seat in your event wagon. Check your old
>  pouches. Whatever. If you don't have money, see if you have books for
>  the booksale at your public library.
> 
>  You don't have to do this if you don't want to. But if you do, pass the
>  message along to other people. See if other people will be interested.
>  See if we can get a whole bunch of SCAdians into libraries in the next
>  two weeks...

>  Thank you for your time and attention....
