 3rd Annual Giving Tree
The 3rd Annual Giving Tree is being sponsored by Giese Memorial Library of Wyoming to benefit children of Chisago County in need. Each year, branch librarian, Rebecca Hostetler and Heidi Neff of Chisago County Health and Human Services, have collaborated to collect books at Christmastime for children.A tree is placed in the library with names and ages of children. Patrons and friends of the library either pick up a tag and purchase a book for that child or donate money to be used for purchasing needed books. All money should be donated by December 10th and unwrapped books must be brought into the library by December 13th.
Area residents have given generously in the past encouraging learning as well as fun. Give the gift of reading! |

Heartfelt thanks to EVERYONE that participated
Many of the volunteers who helped finish planting the sustainable landscaping at Giese Memorial Library are pictured here. Coming with shovels, rakes, wheelbarrows and tractors these folks accomplished a lot in a few hours. The Wyoming Area Library Society worked with the Chisago County Soil and Water Conservation District and were awarded a $10,000 grant. |
