[Publib] RE: grand opening ideas please

[Larry T. Nix]

One idea would be to create a special souvenir envelope for the occasion.
Information on how to do this is located at:

Dear PubLibbers,
In two weeks we begin moving to our new, gorgeous, fantastic library.
And soon thereafter, of course, comes the Grand Opening.  And so we come
to you, O collective wisdom: what are your favorite, creative, fun,
celebrative, really cool, practically-no-budget Grand Opening
activities???   What are Common Pitfalls To Strenuously Avoid?  What are
the best ways to not [merely] feature a less-than-riveting line of
speeches from all VIPs present?

All ideas, experiences, hints and tips are welcome.
Appreciatively,
Mary Beth Conlee
Burlington (WA) Public Library
