Shopping Bag Purchases To Help Berlin Library
A booster group for the Berlin-Peck Memorial Library will receive proceeds in September from Stop & Shop's Community Bag Program.

BERLIN, CT — Residents who shop at the Berlin Stop & Shop have the chance to lend a helping hand to the Berlin-Peck Memorial Library.
That's because the Friends of the Berlin-Peck Memorial Library booster organization has been chosen as the September beneficiary of Stop & Shop's "Community Bag Program."
Essentially, for every $2.50 reusable shopping bag purchased at the Berlin Stop & Shop (1135 Farmington Ave.), the friends will get $1 for the library, located at 234 Kensington Road, Berlin.
