On Monday, February 9, the Manchester Branch celebrated Black History Month with a two part program. Customers enjoyed a “Soul Food Luncheon,” which was prepared by staff member Donna Risner. Ham, macaroni and cheese, collard greens, black-eyed peas, and cornbread were served. Before the entertainment started, those who attended the programs also had the opportunity to complete crossword puzzles and word scramblers related to black history. Drawings were held for theme-related books.
After lunch, participants enjoyed the musical sounds of singer Jon Turk. During his “Motown Spectacle,” Mr. Turk discussed the history of Motown and performed many famous songs.
Over 60 people enjoyed themselves while they learned about black history!
