You are invited by the Apalachicola Bay Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Center and the Friends of Franklin County Public Libraries to the Ribbon Cutting of the new gazebo and walkway at the Eastpoint Branch library on Thursday, February 10th at 4:00 p.m. The Eastpoint Branch library is located at 160 Hickory Dip Rd, Eastpoint, FL. This gazebo and walkway is the result of a process that was dreamed and drawn, by the Friends of Franklin County Public Libraries, when the library was first built six years ago. The dream was and is to provide beautification projects to complement the library building. The Friends is excited to provide this outdoor component that will help to fulfill the mission of access to information and education in an outside setting. This large project was able to happen thanks to a generous bequest. Future plans for the library grounds include more trails.
