Brick sales build library fund

The centennial of the Baxter Memorial Library and the Baxter House Museum is Sept. 23, 2008. To celebrate, library and museum are paving the way for the second century by selling commemorative bricks.

The bricks, which can include customized message, will be used to repave the museum walkway. A brick purchase will also support the library’s Centennial Endowment Fund.

The bricks will remain in the Baxter museum walkway for many years. Support of the Centennial Endowment Fund will help support library collections for generations.
