Fundraising Update
November 2007
Since July 1, 2007, we have raised $62,665, almost all of which is designated for furnishings, which moves us closer to the objective of providing a first class library for all of our citizens. Items to be purchased include glass display cases, computers and computer enhancements, bike racks, audio-visual cabinetry and wiring, a microfilm reader, a photo copier, and much, much more.
Generous donations have been mad by Oregon Cultural Trust, James F. and Marion L. Miller Foundation, Stayton Area Rotary Club, Rotary Foundation, and 30+ individual donors.

The 7,500 square foot addition to the Stayton Library is now complete, thanks to you and your generosity! We are in the process of remodeling our site to reflect the ongoing mission of the Foundation. We urge you to stop by the library at 515 N. First Ave. and check out the new addition!

Library Birthday Party!
On Saturday, July 12, 2008, 2-4 pm, the Stayton Public Library Foundation will celebrate the library addition's first birthday and You are Invited! Join us for cake and ice cream under a tent in the north parking lot. If you'd like to bring a present, we'll be happy to accept. We can take credit cards these days, or, of course, cash and checks. Come celebrate our bigger library!
This party replaces our annual Elegant Dinner.
March 24, 2008 Training
The Stayton Public Library Foundation has received a grant from the Ford Family Foundation to provide training to non-profit groups. We would like to invite you and your board members to our first free training with dinner included. Learn, first hand, the legal obligations you have as a board member.
We have partnered with Heidi Henry, a non-profit consultant and Ross Laybourn. Mr. Laybourn recently spoke at a non-profit training in Corvallis and was extremely well received.
Please forward this to members in your organization or to other local non-profit groups that may have interest.
March 24 at 6pm is the scheduled date and time. Space is limited so call early for your reservation! See this flyer for further details.
