Just in time for Mother’s Day, the Grafton Community Library will raffle a gift basket to benefit the Library. The winning ticket will be drawn on Saturday, May 1, at the Library. Ticket prices are one dollar each or six tickets for five dollars.
The basket is brimming with a variety of items to nourish the body, mind and spirit. Books include titles by popular authors Anna Quindlen and Stuart Woods. Dan Brown’s best-seller The Lost Symbol is included together with The Puzzle Lady vs. the Sudoku Lady by Parnell Hall. The basket includes a $20 gift certificate donated by Vonadeau Wine and Spirits, cookies, apple butter and a kitchen gadget. Along with your reading, you can write in a journal, brew a cup of tea or indulge in assorted chocolate treats. To please the gardener there is a Stella d’Oro daylily, hardy gloxinia and garden tools. The French milled soap, lavender scented candle and manicure lotion will make any woman feel pampered. Give the basket as a gift, keep it as a treat for yourself or use the goodies as individual gifts.
