Thank you to the Manton Foundation!

Thank you to the Manton Foundation for awarding the library a $72,000 grant, which allowed us to acquire this all-electric 2025 Chevy BrightDrop 600. We also want to express our gratitude to Caleb Grant of Rural Community Transportation (RCT), for permitting the library to charge and store the new vehicle for free at their facility every night, which will be a huge cost savings in the future. Additionally, thank you to Chuck’s Flooring for recently installing new carpet in the BrightDrop for free, and to Jason Coons and Nutrien Ag Solutions for granting us access to their indoor garage so this work could be completed. Likewise, StoneCrest Properties generously donated $300 to cover the cost of a new bookmobile computer so that our driver, Colleen Lariviere, can check out books to families while on board the vehicle. We really appreciate the support that we have received from these wonderful community partners!
