Dear Madeline Island Community Members,
We are pleased to announce a successful inaugural year for the Madeline Island Public Library’s FriendsCircle. Between April and November 2024, Island residents, visitors, and organizations stepped up to provide services and funding to support Library grounds and woods enhancement and library programs prioritized to benefit the community.
FriendsCircle is a Library committee formed organically out of the Island’s tradition of mutual giving. Its primary focus is fund-raising, friend-raising, and creating a strong volunteer group to support and advocate for Library programs. The FriendsCircle is a group of individuals who share the common interest of promoting and supporting the Library. YOU are one of these individuals. The FriendsCircle is OUR collective name.
The FriendsCircle is project-driven, and those projects are community- and library-initiated. The FriendsCircle structure will enable you to tailor your participation and contributions around your passions and availability.
In 2025 we will continue to focus on our priority projects :
-Memorial Day 2025 Sound Garden,
-Curated book collections featuring our unique location & history,
-Activated outdoor Maker Space,
-Enhanced technology collaboration with Owl camera and bar,
-Improved communications with Little Green Light.
If you are curious or intrigued or just ready to jump in, email us at [email protected] or sign up at the library: let us know where your interests lie and how you want to help. Definitely fill out the survey via the button below!
Your support of any kind propels us all forward. You may donate online or snail mail to FriendsCircle, PO Box 65, 1 Library Street, La Pointe, WI 54850.
Thank you,
Founding Committee - Mimi Smith, Helen Roland, Jane Vogt and Kerrey Andreas (Library Board liaison)
There is also a Survey to help us kick things off!
