Learn about J.D. Mullens Dressing at
Friends of the Library Program

Friends of Marshall Public Library invite everyone to their annual membership drive program on Thursday, June 21st, 2012, beginning at 6:30 PM (Central). The program, “Dressing for All Occasions”, will be in the library’s Dale McConchie Meeting Room, which is handicapped accessible.  Members get in free. If you are not a member of the Friends of the Library, simply pay $5.00 to join, either at the door or in advance, and come to the program!  There are no obligations attached to your membership.  It will be a fun evening of samples, recipes, door prizes, and some delicious items available for purchase.

Jeff Shaner, owner of J.D. Mullens Dressings in Palestine, Illinois, will tell the story of the business his father purchased in 1985 from John Mullen.  Jeff continues to adhere to rigid quality standards demanded by the late John Mullen, whose delicious dressings are still made according to his original secret recipes developed in the 1920’s.  According to the company web site, “Many have attempted to duplicate J.D. Mullen's formula, but none have been able to perfect the fresh taste and natural goodness of Mullen's.”

Please call or stop in the library to register for this popular program so we can have enough samples for all.  Everyone is welcome! Marshall Public Library is located at 612 Archer Avenue, in Marshall, Illinois.

Those participating in the library’s Summer Reading Program will earn an additional chance in the “Reading is Soooo Delicious!” grand prize drawing for attending this program.
