Holiday Luncheon

With heartfelt appreciation, the Friends and Volunteers of the Ocean City Free Public Library thank the Board of Directors for Singingthe fun-filled Holiday Luncheon. The luncheon provided a welcomed respite from the sometimes frenetic preparation for the holidays. Singing, laughing, and making memories was truly a gift!

This year we were grateful for the camaraderie, the fun, and the celebration of Frances Keenan’s FrancesBirthday100th birthday—the cake, the birthday candles, a proclamation from Ocean City read by Mayor Gillian, and a resolution from the Board of Directors of the Ocean City Free Public Library! We’re all wishing we live as long, as lively, and as healthy as Frances!
