The WPFV Rotary Club supports scholarships in the name of Reba Ferguson, who was a

Support Our Local Library!

The WPFV Rotary Club would like to remind everyone that its easy way to support libraries in Grand County
with a simple click of a mouse. If you buy books using Amazon.com, 4% of your purchases can be donated 
to the library by going to amazon through the library's website http://www.gcld.org. 

There is no cost to you. Amazon makes this donation if you link their from the library's site. So bookmark
and look for the Amazon logo on the library homepage.

The WPFV Rotary Club began a book sponsorship project soon after it was chartered which honors 
the speakers who appear at our weekly lunch meetings by benefitting readers who use the local library. 

Books donated in the speakers honor that bear book plates with the speaker's name and the Rotary emblem. 
Titles available at the library thanks to the project include a wide variety of works, from poetry to fiction 
to history, with such titles as The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great
American Dust Bowl by Timothy Egan. So far a total of 43 books have been added to the library's collection.
Our club has built quite a collection of books for the library--many of which are award-winners.
