CRANBERRY TWP — The Friends of the Cranberry Public Library served up snacks for a cause Friday afternoon in the library’s courtyard reading garden.

The “Hot Dog Fridays” tradition, which started five years ago as a way to raise funds for the Cranberry Public Library, invites families to grab a meal of a hot dog, chips and bottle of water for $4 and enjoy the sunshine while supporting the library’s efforts. The group intends to return to the courtyard on all the Fridays in June in July, excluding July 15.
