NEWS FROM LAKEWOOD LIBRARY! The third annual Lakes Country Public Library Fundraiser Dinner is scheduled for April 27, 2024. The event will be held at the McCauslin Golf Course Country Club on Highway F, a mile and a half east of Lakewood. The theme for this year’s dinner is Book It! Basket and 50-50 raffle tickets will be sold during the Social Hour which begins at five p.m. Dinner will be served at six.
Seating for the event, which has sold out the past two years, is limited to 70 guests. Tickets can be purchased at the Lakes Country Public Library. Call 715-276-9020 for more information or if you would like to make a donation for the basket raffles. Tickets are $50/person and may be purchased to reserve tables for two, four or eight.
From the Building/Expansion Committee: The new addition is in the finishing stages and should be completed by mid-April when the contractor will “break through” the existing wall. Current library fixtures, equipment, and collections will be transferred to the addition which will serve library patrons until the project is finished. The current library area will then undergo a much-needed makeover which will double the size of the Children’s Library and re-configure the floor plan to provide better services for our patrons. The entire project should be completed by mid-summer. A Dedication Celebration is tentatively scheduled for July 27, 2024.
From the Fundraising Committee: We are closing in our $1.5 million goal. Contributions for the project are still being solicited. Please help us reach the target! Stop by the Library with a donation, contribute online at www.lakescountylibrary.org or send a check to LCPL, 15235 State Highway 32, Box 220, Lakewood, WI 54138. All donations are fully tax-deductible and greatly appreciated.
