To the editor:

The Brown County Public Library and the Brown County Literacy Coalition would like to thank all those who made our Fall Fest on Oct. 8 a successful and fun event. It was a day of great music by Robbie Bowden and Carolyn Dutton, food, prizes for costumes, crafts, games and free books for kids.

Thank you to the following contributors: Big Woods Pizza Company, Bear Hardware, Miller’s Ice Cream House, The Chocolate Moose, Brown County Kettlecorn, Marianne Metzelaar, Russell Pruett, Paula Hartz, Leslie Bassett, Carol Roberts and Shirl Malina (our “fortune teller”).

We very much appreciate the community support for the activities at the library.
