Support the Pembroke Public Library

By Friends of the Pembroke Public Library June 20, 2019

Friends of the Pembroke Public Library are hosting a new fundraiser where 12 local businesses can sponsor and decorate a herring that will be on display in the library. With this sponsorship, you also get a friends membership for the rest of this year or this year and next year depending on what level you choose. Attached are the details for the program and the picture of the herring you'll get to decorate either to represent your business or Pembroke!
