Volunteers and Grants Bring New Books to McCloud’s Young Readers

In McCloud, 2nd and 3rd graders get to visit the McCloud library during school hours once a week as part of their school schedule. In the small rural community of McCloud, there are no paid librarians. Nine volunteers work at the McCloud branch. Volunteers Nancy Smith and Eileen Bauer plan the weekly activities, which include story time, crafts and activities related to the story of the week, and a snack. Before heading back to class, each child gets to check out a new book. Last week, Smith and Bauer donated bubble wands for the children to play with during their library time.
