ByJulieZeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter RED BLUFF TheTehamaCounty Friends of the Library and guests, including a few of the Tehama County Supervisors, received an update Thursday on fundraising efforts and costs for the new li- brary as well as a tour of the pro- posed site. The evening started with a soup dinner and annual meet- ing with Board President Micah Stetson giving an update on the group to the guests. The majority of the group's fi- nances come from generous be- quests, books purchased in mem- ory of people and annual mem- berships, Stetson said. The big question at the yearly budget meeting on Feb. 8 will be how much the group has to donate to- ward the new library site while maintaining its commitments to existing projects. Librarian Sally Ainsworth gave an update on the library efforts to get out to events in the community and do outreach as well as grant opportunities the county is look- ing into. "We've gone to everything we could to do outreach," Ainsworth said. "We want to let people know we're out there working to get the new library." The next library fundraising eventisAlice'sTeaParty,scheduled for2-4:30p.m.onSaturday,Oct.10, at the Elks Lodge. Cost is $10 per ticket, which can be purchased at the library, 645 Madison St. The Board of Supervisors has earmarked $4 million of the $6.7 million cost for the new site and thanks to the McConnel Fund of the Shasta Regional Community Foundation, which contributed $500,000, the campaign to raise the remaining $2.2 million is un- derway, Chief Administrator Bill Goodwin said. "Thanks to the McConnell Fund whosteppedupandbelievedinthe library," Goodwin said. "Now we needthecommunitytostepupand show that we're all a part of this. I believe there are major donors out there that if they see the commu- nity step up will step up."
