MONKTON — The Monkton Friends Methodist Church is once again hosting their annual Holiday Bazaar and Bake Sale.  This year, because of COVID-19, all food must be pre-ordered by Nov. 15 and picked up at the church on Saturday, Nov. 21, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the parking lot. They will have all of your favorite items including homemade donuts, handmade chocolates, assorted pies, maple cakes, plus a delicious assortment of homemade soups, chili, and baked beans to either eat immediately or freeze to enjoy on a cold winter night.  
The link to pre-order food can be found on the Monkton Friends Methodist Church website, tinyurl.com/MFMC-online-bazaar. 
Weather permitting there will be a few craft items on outdoor tables.  For more information or questions call Marilyn at 453-5192 or Teri 453-4918.

The library will be open on Tuesdays from 2 to 6 p.m., while keeping the same hours on Thursdays, 3 to 7 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Please be aware that the library will be closed on Thursday, Nov. 26, in observance of Thanksgiving.
