KINDNESS IN OUR COMMUNITY

The Penetanguishene Public Library gets a helping hand from Penetanguishene Horticultural Society members on Friday May 24th. Bonnie McLaren, Carolyn and Gerald Merner are seen donating their time and expertise to create a new garden of perennials for the library. All the plantings were donated as well and will add enormous charm to our library.
