Installation of Free Lending Library & Rotary Bench
 May 6th installation of  the Free Lending Library and Rotary bench at Sunset Valley Elementary School located near Tony Berger Center. We also planted a tree. It looks great!  Thanks to Satch, Jim, Simon, Lisa, Mickie and Shirley.  This project is now  complete except for filling the library with books, so…you guessed it. Next project - collecting books for the library!
