Phase 2 of our construction project is going well! The new part of the library is taking shape and we can't wait to welcome you in once it is finished! The picture to the left shows the area that will be the main entrence.
Special Project Happening!
Our tree that had to be cut down has now been transformed into boards! We had a mobile sawmill from Watertown come on Friday, January 24th as the log was too big for us to move and take to a sawmill. These boards will be dried and then used to make a special project for in the new Library.
