The Stratford Library Board of Trustees will present its annual fundraiser for the library. The nineteenth annual gala event entitled “Hooray for Hollywood” will offer “Avenue Groove”, a six piece R&B/Funk band as this year’s entertainment.

“Hooray for Hollywood” is an evening of music, dancing, appetizers, dinner and fine beverages. Guests are encouraged to “dress Hollywood” for an entry to win a prize.

Those unable to attend the benefit may support the Library by going online to make their auction bids.
