John Library Project
Right:
Site of the New St John Library/City Hall
Check here for weekly updates
In November of 2005 the residents of the town of St John
passed a $500,000 construction bond issue for a new Library /
City Hall building with an 80% majority. The planning and bid
phase of the project took place between February 2006 and
August 2007. In September 2007 a bid was accepted and contract
signed with Western States Construction. Actual construction
will begin by October 15. The project will be completed by
April 2008. Weekly construction pictures will be posted on
this website.

Eighty-three children and
adults enjoyed ice cream and cookies, special awards
and the all important prize bags at the last Summer Reading
program. A
record 97 children signed up for Summer Reading in St John
this year. Eighty-nine
kids "Caught the reading bug" and completed their
pledge to read ten
hour or ten books before July 23. Everyone enjoyed the
wonderful new library.
Children who were unable to attend the final program should
pick up
their prizes at the library by August 20.
