So long, fare well, auf wiedersehen, goodbye!

Dear kids, parents, teachers and friends;
I am happy and sad to report that I will soon be leaving John's Island and even South Carolina. I have accepted a position as the Youth Services Manager of the Rice Lake Public Library in Wisconsin. Goodbye beach; hello snow!
I will miss all of you so much as I have absolutely loved working here on the island! This is a wonderful community and I have really been proud to become a part of it. The children here are smart, curious, energetic, and fun. I hope that all of you will continue to see the John's Island Library as your community library so that the great staff here can watch your children grow and change each day.
Miss Jana will be the interim manager of the children's department for those of you interested in expressing your opinions and programming needs. Feel free to stop in to chat with her anytime about the library programs, school collaborations and more.
Please stop by too, to see me before I go on December 16 so that I can say goodbye to you personally. Again, a big thanks to the John's Island community at large for a fantastic three years as your children's librarian!
love,
Miss Dawn
