The residents at the Zerbe Retirement Community love the Bookmobile! When they learned that the current Bookmobile was in need of replacement, they immediately went to work in planning an event that would help the cause and give special meaning to their residents. They have organized a Rock-A-Thon that will happen on Friday, April 7 from 2:00 – 4:00 pm at the Zerbe Retirement Community located at 2499 Zerbe Road, Narvon, PA 17555. Participating residents and staff will rock in rocking chairs for 30-minute intervals. The ‘rockers’ are looking for sponsors and they are confident that by asking 5 people to each donate $20 in support for their rocking time, they will help raise much-needed funds to help purchase the bookmobile.
Cheryl Heineman, Activities Director, headed the project with the same level of enthusiasm as the residents. She said, “We really love our bookmobile and want to support it any way we can!”
To sign up and join in the Rock-A-Thon fun, call 717-445-4551 and ask for Kristen Groff. All donation checks should be made payable to The Library System of Lancaster County. Refreshments will be served during the event.
