EUREKA – On Monday, August 13, 6:30 – 8 p.m. anyone interested is invited to Eureka Public Library to participate in making greeting cards that are offered free of charge US troops serving overseas.

The special occasion cards are distributed to servicemen and women serving in areas where it is difficult to purchase cards. The Eureka Library owns a Cricut cutter for making letters and shapes and the Cricut will be available for use during this time. In addition, a variety of techniques are taught and used during the work time. All supplies are furnished. Cost for the evening is $5, and the money collected is used for supplies and postage to mail the cards.
