For more than 180 years, the quaint home of the Bakerville Library has stood as both a touchstone of our common past and a threshold into the future we all share.

Bakerville Holiday Festival, December 2011


Thanks for coming.

A nice crowd came to the Bakerville Holiday Festival on December 2nd and enjoyed good weather, a hot fire, delicious refreshments, a cheery visit with Mrs. Claus, the season's best music with Anne DeMichiel, and friendly competition over this year’s silent auction offerings.

We raised over $2600 for the library.

What did you win?
