Capital campaign member Robin Gamby adds a line to the outdoor library sign showing fundraising progress.
Despite blustery winds, the Board of the Columbia Public Library held its "Topping Off" ceremony today, March 3, to mark the halfway point of the library's $2.5 million expansion and celebrate progress of the project. Dozens gathered at the library to hear updates on construction and to sign a truss that will be placed on the building. Construction is being undertaken by CH&E Construction Company and the Capital Campaign.
A truss ready for signing.
