The weekend continues - hopefully with the snow storm behind us, and with many great events still before us, - to celebrate the week of St. Patrick's Day. The following are FREE on Sunday at the Fletcher Free Library (235 College St. Burlington) in the Local History Room downstairs:
1:00 - 2:00 PM
Book Talk: Vince Feeney on "James Edmund Burke and his Times"
