3. Okay – we know it might be warmish weather (and rainy?) so this Sweat Shirt Week will include the option of T-shirts, rain parkas, and other shirts or attire, or the usual sweat shirts.

4. Wear your favorite T- or Sweat shirts to work during the week – no, this is not a requirement, it is completely voluntary and in the spirit of fun.  Be creative and join in the spring celebrations.

5. Every day at noon for the photo shoot, we will gather at the steps of Alderman Library. Smile! Come on over from any of the libraries – SEL, Music, Fine Arts, Clemons, Special Collections, etc. or from anywhere (retirees are even welcome back). Join us. If you can’t make it, take or selfie or have someone take a photo of you in your T- or Sweat Shirt and get it to me. More photos the better.
