Library Expansion
In November of 2002, the Board of the North-West Regional Library approved fundraising for a much needed addition to the Library The Benito Library Expansion Committee was formed to fundraise and complete grants. Through their dedication and hard work the dream has become reality. The Library project is now complete.
We are still currently raising funds to be held in a reserve account for future use.
