The Maury County Retired Teachers Association’s service project for 2022-2023 was to assist the Mt. Pleasant Public Library with Story Time every Thursday. Members chose books and activities for two to five-year-olds. They made adjustments when older children attended during school breaks and throughout the summer. The retired teachers collectively volunteered more than 80 hours for this project. As a thank you, the library hosted a tea party with tea, finger sandwiches, desserts, and savories. Everyone received a certificate of appreciation.
