Catie Newby Editor
It’s that time again! Time for new begin-
nings! Time to refresh and make some new
goals! According to www.tiptoptens.com the
top New Year’s Resolutions are:
10. Be Proactive
9. Quit Smoking
8. Get a Promotion at Work
7. Pay Debts
6. Stop Gambling
5. Reduce Stress
4. Exercise More
3. Be Healthy
2. Save Money
1. Lose Weight (we all knew this would be #1, right?)
So to help with a few of those, here are a
few great cookbooks you might want to try!
SUPPORT YOUR LIBRARY! If you already shop or purchase gas at Kwik Trip, you’re half-way to supporting our
library.
It’s an easy program. Simply purchase the Kwik
Trip cards at the library for $50 or $100 (face
value) and Kwik Trip gives 10% of proceeds to our
library. That’s a great deal! And there’s no extra
cost to you!
A good portion of our funding comes from the com-
munity here in the North Freedom area. Throughout the year we have books sales
and bake sales and the Kwik Trip card program is just one more opportunity to give
a little something back to our library.
Where does the money go? Among other things:
materials
maintenance
and just plain keeping our library in business!
Thank you in advance for your support!!

Loved It! I’m buying the T-shirt!
Liked It. I’ll tell a few friends about it.
Didn’t like it. Makes great background noise.
Hated it. Would rather wash my hair.
I could watch this with my Grandma.
