Mark your calendars now! Homecoming 2010 will be held October 8-10, and the 2011 celebration is scheduled for October 7-9.
Oct. 9-11, 2009
Come “home” to see what’s happening! This year marks the 40th anniversary of the historic library drive of 1969, and we're planning special activities to celebrate this significant event. (Read about the library drive and watch video on the Crossroads web pages.)
The original “Unity Bell” that was a rallying symbol for the library drive in 1969 has develped a crack and will be put on display in the library. Another bell will be hung by the library and rung throughout the weekend.
See the full weekend schedule and make plans to be here!
