MOFFERFONTEIN LIFE The final chapter The Friends of Modderfontein Library held their final meeting recently, clos- ing this chapter of community involvement after almost 7 years. Over this period the Friends hosted lively Story Time sessions for children, monthly book sales which attracted buyers from far and wide and Coffee Mornings with interesting and entertaining speakers. Funds raised were used to support the Library, purchasing new books or equipment. Heartfelt thanks go out to members of the Modderfontein community, Thornhill and Lakeside residents, as well as community members from fur- ther afield – Edenvale, Kempton Park, etc – for supporting these events. Pictured are Friends members: back row from left Marian Janssen, Eileen Powell, Sonya van Es, Frayne Matthijs and Sally Hogan. Front from left Maryke Ewen, Dale Cherrington.
