Wabasso Public Library to celebrate 90 years of service

The Library is turning 90 years old! On Saturday, April 23, 1932, the Wabasso Public Library opened for business for the first time, and back then it was open to the public just two days a week. We’ve come a long way since then, and we invite everyone to help us celebrate this milestone at our Open House on Saturday, April 23 from 4 to 6 p.m. Treats and refreshments will be served and we hope to see many stop in to visit and talk about their favorite memories of the Library.
