At the annual Friends meeting October 18th, retired teacher and historian Ed Evans spoke on the former CCC and POW Camp in Hamlin. The CCC camp was established in 1935, later served as housing for migrant farm workers, and then was a POW camp in World War II. It was a very interesting and enjoyable program. Thanks goes to staff member Patty Bruno who is responsible for putting together the library's programs for our adult population.
