HISTORY 

Our first Mini Golf event (April 2016) was a big success: people of all ages enjoyed playing 18 holes of miniature golf inside the library, and the event raised over $6K. This wonderful community event has now become an Annual event. See Sandy Ward's PHOTO albums for 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022 and NOW 2024.

 The 18-hole course: The first four tees and putting greens are on the top floor (Level 4) in and around the Non-fiction stacks and Reference stacks. Play continues down the stairs and throughout the Children's Room on Level 2, then down to the Fiction Stacks, Level 1, and the Teen Room on the ground level.
