Little Free Library Dedicated in Lordship

In honor of Victoria Soto, a Little Free Library was installed on Sunday, November 3rd, near the benches at Ackley Park in Lordship. The inspiration came from Vicki's aunt, Debbie Fagan Cronk (pictured), a Lordship resident. Debbie's husband, Rob, built the pedestal; Mike Stowe, a Stratford carpenter, built the structure, a replica of a schoolhouse.

Here's a definition of a Little Free Library from the organization's homepage (http://littlefreelibrary.org):

"It’s a 'take a book, return a book' gathering place where neighbors share their favorite literature and stories. In its most basic form, a Little Free Library is a box full of books where anyone may stop by and pick up a book (or two) and bring back another book to share."

It's a fitting memorial to a dedicated teacher, which we're proud to have placed in Lordship.
