Library Fund Raiser and Free Concert coming to Pine River

a) WINE
b) BEER
c) FOOD
d) LIBRARY
e) NONE OF THE ABOVE

Which of these items is not like the others?

The answer is e)! Pine River Public Library's Friends of the Library Foundation is once again having their annual Wine and Beer tasting Fund Raiser! This means an evening of tasting wines and beers brought to you by Ultimate Liquors in Pine River and wonderful Hors d' oeuvres provided by Lakes Latte' in Pequot Lakes.

This is being held once again at AmericInn Lodge and Suites in Jenkins.
The date is Saturday, March 13th from 6 - 8 PM.

AmericInn is offering special room rates for this event, so stay afterwards and enjoy a mini-vacation. (Let them know you are attending the Library
Wine Tasting when booking.)

There will also be a Silent Auction, which is always fun. Currently we are still accepting offerings for this auction. Your business card will be displayed with your item.

The cost of admission is $15.00 in advance at the Pine River Library, Ultimate Liquors and Lottsa Stuff Store in Pine River. Tickets at the door will be $17.00 and Friends of the Library will receive $2.00 off the ticket price.

And as if that wasn't enough, Kitchigami Regional Library System in conjunction with a Legacy Grant from the State of Minnesota is presenting system-wide concerts by Elsa Korenne. She will appear in Pine River a the Life Center on Barclay Ave on Monday evening March 8th at 6:30. Ms, Korenne was originally Commissioned by Minnesota to perform in the State's 150th birthday celebration, Minnesota's Ordinarily Unsung.

"Elisa Korenne now lives in New York Mills but has been performing her original songs at concerts and festivals around the world for over 10 years..."

Thank you, my library, for making our town a better place to live.
