The Western Massachusetts Library Advocates have hired a
bus to take library supporters to the State House for Legislative Day. This gives you a chance to meet with your
legislators, network with colleagues from all types of libraries and
participate in the Mass. School Library Association Bookmarks awards. Our own Western Mass Senator Stan Rosenberg
will be honored with an Advocacy Award.
Talking points for the Legislative Agenda will be handed
out on the bus or we can get you one ahead of time if you like.
Join us on the bus to Boston for the very reasonable cost
of $20.00 per person. People coming from
Berkshire County who carpool in cars holding 2 or more people will be
reimbursed for travel to West Springfield.
The pick-up spots are:
7:30 am Table
&Vine Liquors, West Springfield
8:15 am Palmer Public Library
9:00 am Auburn Public Library
The bus will
leave Boston at 2:30 pm and will arrive in West Springfield by 4:30 pm. The group discount cost is still only $20 per
person. This price is a great deal, less than the cost of parking in a
Boston garage for five hours. Complete the form below and mail with your check
to: WMLA, PO Box 609, So. Deerfield,
MA 01373 ~or~ send through delivery to MLS/ Whately Attn: WMLA . Please include the memo “Legislative Bus” on
your check.
