“Feast of Words,” the annual Hood River County Library Foundation fundraiser and “party in the library,” returns March 10 to the downtown branch from 6-9 p.m., with music, food, desserts, beverages, live music and silent and live auctions.

Tickets are $25 and are available at any library branch, Volcanic Bottle Shoppe, Waucoma Bookstore and at the door. The foundation aims to raise $30,000 this year, to support and improve library services in Cascade Locks and Odell.
