Dinner to benefit Lakes Country Public Library

The third annual Lakes Country Public Library Fundraiser Dinner is scheduled for April 27. The event will be held at the McCauslin Brook Golf Course Country Club off County Road F, 17067 Club House Lane, 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 5 p.m. Dinner will be served at 6 p.m. 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, 15235 State Highway 32. Tickets are $50 per person and may be purchased to reserve tables for two, four or eight. Call 715-276-9020 for information or to make a donation for the basket raffles. The new library 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 patrons. The entire project should be completed by mid-summer. A dedication celebration is tentatively scheduled for July 27. The library is closing in on its $1.5 million fundraising goal. Contributions for the project are still being solicited. Stop by the library with a donation, contribute online at www.lakescountylibrary.org or send a check to LCPL, P.O. Box 220, Lakewood, WI 54138. All donations are fully tax-deductible.
