News from our librarian:

“It's that time of year and our SUMMER ABC READ-TO-ME PROGRAM is gearing up for a great celebration. The program is open to kids of all ages and this summer we will have a program for the kids 12 and under (Happy 250th Birthday America and kids 12 and over (Chasing American Legends). If you have a 12 year old and they like doing crafts then the younger group might be just the thing. But if they like exploring and history, then "Chasing American Legends" might be just right for them. They will join the Green family (from Patriot Academy, Texas) and "travel" around the country to learn more about our American heroes such as Sybil Ludington, a 14 year old girl who rode 40 miles through the woods to reach her father to let him know the British were coming. Or how did George Washington survive getting shot 8 times during a shoot out during the French/Indian wars?

The program runs from 10:00-12:00 on Wednesdays for 14 weeks STARTING TOMORROW May 20. If you are in a public or private school, you can join us when school gets out.”

Very thankful for the donation from Whitney’s and all their customers!!

We are proud to announce that Whitney’s donated $1,026.84 to the John B. Curtis Free Public Library located in Bradford, Maine, from our first quarter gas sales! A portion of every gallon is donated to a local charity.

Fiona had the honor of joining her grandmother, Brenda, to help present the check in celebration of this special donation.

We want to sincerely thank all of our amazing customers for supporting Whitney’s. Every time you pump gas at Whitney’s, a portion of your purchase goes right back into our communities through donations and local support. Because of you, we are able to give back to organizations that make a difference every day.

Thank you for helping us continue to support our local communities!
