We've officially broken ground for our new building!
On June 15th, we celebrated the kickoff of the construction project! We were grateful to have beautiful weather and the company of Village President Keith Giagnorio along with Village Staff and Board Members, State Representatives Terra Costa Howard and Deb Conroy, our Library Board (past and present), and many others!
For more from the celebration, check out the video here!
