Commissioner Cole speaks to Friends 
 
District Two County Commissioner Bob Cole was the featured speaker on the Friend's July business meeting agenda.  About two dozen friends were present to hear his remarks.  His county update was followed by a discussion of views concerning how best to fund a new Milton Library.  A big thank you to the commissioner for taking time to meet with us.
 
Flying Pigs Fundraiser Launched! 
 
The Friends of the Milton Library have launched a new fundraising campaign, "Where Pigs Fly", to replace the aging Milton LIbrary building.  To raise public funds to build a library during this economic downturn seems nearly impossible. But we can't let go of the idea of a newer, larger more accessible library.  This campaign will have several facets - and you can learn more about them by reading an article in The Pensacola News Journal.
