Sara Busse, Executive Director for the ImagineIF Foundation, and Deidre McMullin, Bigfork Branch Manager, joined Rotary to update us on the progress of the new library. They have broken ground and they expect to be operational June 2024! This is such wonderful news, not only for Bigfork, but also for the entire Valley.
