Is it nearly mid-December already? We'd better hurry up and celebrate!

- Congrats to the Uptown Children's Library Capital Campaign Committee for raising $1,342,550 toward the completion of the space!
- Congratulations to Kristin and Debbie K on their impending retirements! Look for party announcements soon.
- Let's celebrate the holidays on Thursday at the Civil War Museum with pizza provided by the Mayor
- And hopefully Brandi and I will bring home $25,000 from the Potawatomi Casino on Thursday evening!
This week Bright Spots:
From Amy Rae:
"I was just chatting with one of our regulars, who called out DJ Hanson specifically as someone who's been helpful to her family in the past - "he's SO nice, he's great." She told me about a time he discovered a picture book she'd brought back hadn't been checked in before it went back on the shelf. In addition to fixing the problem, he made sure to reach out to the patron to ensure she and her kiddo had had a chance to read the book. They ended up checking it out a second time because of his thoughtfulness. She hastened to add that she thinks we're all awesome, but DJ received high praise in particular. It sounds exactly like the above-and-beyond customer service I see him provide every day, so I wanted to make sure I passed it on. 
"
From Barb: Thanks to Aaron for always going out of his way to help me with resizing files and other tech stuff. You're the best!
Happy weekend, everyone!
