At the meeting of August 21, the Rotary Club of Mechanicsburg presented a check for $2,400 to the Joseph T. Simpson Public Library. This was its share of the net proceeds from the A Taste of Mechanicsburg event held on April 28th. It was a great success with over 160 people in attendance, 11 vendors, a great band, and about $9,000 raised. The Simpson Library and staff gave well appreciated support by providing the venue, helping with publicity, ticket sales, and support at the event. The 3rd Annual A Taste of Mechanicsburg is scheduled for Sunday, April 26, 2020. Stay tuned for more information.

The club also received an update on the library which is a very active and important asset to the community.
