On a weekday afternoon last fall — it might have been a Wednesday in November — five San Diego city officials visited the venerable little library in Ocean Beach. What the heck was up with that, you might be wondering? I’ll tell you.
The folks from downtown were met by a group of locals including library staff, several Friends of the OB Library and representatives of the Ocean Beach MainStreet Association, Woman’s Club, Community Foundation, Community Development Corp. and Historical Society. We all sat in a circle around the rug in the children’s section on those little chairs to hear a heartwarming rendition of “Go Dog Go!”
OK, I made up that last part, but it was almost that exciting.
