2024 Patio Project

PATIO UPDATE: JULY 17, 2024

The Germantown Community Library is excited to announce that our outdoor Patio is open! Early literacy play items and umbrellas will be put during regular library hours (weather permitting!) Musical instruments and our next order of bricks will be installed in mid-September.

Our Patio Ribbon Cutting Ceremony with the Germantown Area Chamber of Commerce was held on Friday, June 28. The project includes concrete work by Cervantes Concrete Services LLC – which doubles the previous footprint and adds and ADA pathway and area for a bike rack.  Additional items include two new picnic benches, play houses, a musical instrument area and other early literacy items.

DONATIONS APPRECIATED

The Germantown Community Library is proud to state that the project was 100% funded by donations.  We have raised about $42,000 – 84% of our total goal of $50,000 for the project.  The patio area has bricks left available to be engraved in recognition for donations starting at $100. All future donations will go towards funding our musical instrument garden (sponsored my the Germantown MOMS Club in memory of Alison Bruno). Don’t miss your chance to be part of this project and leave a legacy for decades to come!

The next brick order will be placed on Wednesday, September 18 and bricks typically takes 6-8 weeks to arrive. The library will contact you when your brick has been installed on the outdoor Patio!
