It's a PAW-ty for Fred the Cat!

Join us for a party celebrating the life of Woodbury's most beloved feline, Fred the Cat! Fred lived at the Woodbury Library from 1976-1986 and was a familiar figure to library patrons. Thanks to Lou Gurry, former Children's Librarian Ann Bumstead, and a group of volunteers, a huge version of Fred can still be seen by patrons today - don't forget to look up as you leave the library!

The Fred paw-ty will be purr-fect! Drop in!
