To the editor,

I recently attended Oktoberfest — a successful event held to benefit the Howard Whittemore Library. It was hosted by Jesse Camille’s Restaurant and sponsored by the Eastern Company, Ion Bank, Fitzpatrick, Mariano, Santos, Sousa, P.C., Knights of Columbus 3rd Degree Ojeda Council 33, Naugatuck Valley Savings and Loan and the Naugatuck Chamber of Commerce.

The library staff volunteered their time to help make this event very enjoyable. Larry Erickson and his staff and suppliers provided quality food, beer, wine, hard cider and cider.

Present were many people who support the library and understand its importance in the community. Notably absent was media coverage by both the Waterbury Republican-American and the Naugatuck Citizens News.
