Scio Library Receives Grant Money


(L to R):  Carolyn Miller, ACAF Board Member and the following Scio Free Library Board members: Belinda Thompson, Sue Moyer, Corrine Glass, Gloria Miess, and Mary Zdrojewski.
The Allegany County Area Foundation recently presented a $598.57 check to the Scio Memorial Library. This check comes from the current earnings of an ACAF endowment fund established by the Hydramec Corporation in Scio back in 1989.  This fund was created for the purpose of promoting free public library services for the Scio community.
Mrs. Gloria Meiss, Scio Free Library Board President, explained that this grant money will help finance their library holiday programs such as Santa's visit.  Santa will make a visit to the library on Wednesday, December 20th.  Children of all ages are invited to attend, so watch for more details on this special event!
The Scio Memorial Library has been serving the residents of Scio since 1906.
  The library is open on Wednesday (2PM - 7PM), Thursday (11AM - 5PM), Friday (11AM - 4PM), and Saturday (11AM - 3PM).  For more information please visit their web site at:
