With the receipt of a $50,000 grant from the
Daniels Fund of Colorado, the board made definite
plans to build the long planned addition.
Half of this grant was a challenge grant - the
$25,000 was raised in a month's time thus giving
the library a total of $75,000. Donations
poured in and the building began in the early part
of 2007.

With construction nearing completion, the
next hurdle is to find funding to furnish
the building. Fund raising is on
going and we appreciate the support of the
community and our patrons in these
endeavors.
7/15/2008
The library officially opens with full use of the addition. Renovation continues and funds are still required for the as-yet unpaid construction bills. |
