Cupcakes and cupcakes and books, OH MY!


Some of you may be scrambling to get those taxes finished up today. If not, you best be filing an extension form. It's day 4 of National Library Week and it was also the Cupcake-A-Book Contest. We had a great crowd and raised money for the Garden Hills Homework Club, a service learning project at Parkland College.

Check out photos of the event on Flickr.com if you missed out on this joyous occasion! Our winner was a Parkland Student, Carissa Graham, who designed The Tale of Peter Rabbit. Thanks to all who made this event a success!

  1. On behalf of the Garden Hills Homework Club, I'd like to thank Parkand Library for putting on this event. We are overwhelmed by how much money was raised for the Club, and a big THANK YOU to everyone in the Parkland community that either helped with the event or voted. I had a chance to see the cupcakes during lunch, and they were very creative and cute! I will be sure to make an entry for next year's event. Again, thank you, and great job everyone!
