Community members are always welcome to attend the SCFOL Board Meetings that are held in the Community Room on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 4:00-5:30 pm. If you have been thinking about joining SCFOL or becoming a volunteer, this is a good way to find out what we’re all about before making a commitment. We look forward to meeting you and hope you will become an active participant in SCFOL and the Branch’s activities. It will require the support and participation of our entire Community to accomplish the building of our new Branch Library.
