Miss Linda with Clifford the Big Red Dog
Miss Linda is retiring!
After fifteen years of story times, summer reading programs, and special programs at schools, festivals, and day care centers throughout Fannin, Towns and Union Counties, Linda Foster is retiring from the Mountain Regional Library System at the end of March. Miss Linda has entertained and inspired a whole generation of children in our mountain counties - in fact, the first group of children she had in the summer reading program in 1995 are now bringing their children to library programs. Besides being a teller of tales, a spinner of stories, and clever creator of games, Miss Linda is a talented artist. You may remember some of her beautiful bulletin boards and great craft projects she created for all those who visited the library to enjoy. Children and now adults in the three counties still stop her in the grocery store with calls of "hey Miss Linda!" That is what has kept her going all these years! But now, it is time for Miss Linda to enjoy some well-deserved time to chase other dreams and relax a little bit. To celebrate her retirement - and all the good memories she will leave us with - the Mountain Regional Library in Young Harris will host a reception in her honor on Thursday, March 25th at 6 p.m. Please join us for refreshments and reminisces as we celebrate Miss Linda. For more information call 706-379-3732.
