South Hero Library to Break Ground July 21, 2018

Mark your calendar for the groundbreaking of the new South Hero Library 10 a.m. Saturday, July 21, 2018. Construction will begin on the neww, 5,500 square foot library at 260 US Rte. 2 at. All are invited to join in the celebration.

"We are excited about the progress we have made in securing the support of our community," said Ken Kowalewitz, head of the Library Board of Trustees and the South Hero Library Foundation. "Groundbreaking is possible in large part because of Dr. Edward Worthen, our major benefactor. Now we need to match his generosity with $150,000 to complete the $1.5 million funding to build the Library for our community and welcome additional gifts to put us over the top and ensure that we build a well-equipped space. We have decided to begin construction because we are keenly aware of rising construction costs. This celebration of our new Library allows our summer as well as year-round residents to join in this important step in our history."
