100 years for the Carnegie Library Building

On Saturday, July 17, 2010 there was a birthday party on the Courthouse lawn. Ice cream and cupcakes were enjoyed by over 150 people, helping to mark the 100th birthday of the Carnegie Building. After serving the community for almost 80 years as the home of the Johnson County Library, the building continues to serve the county residents as a part of the Gatchell Museum complex. The event was hosted by the staffs, governing boards and Foundations of both the Johnson County Library System and the Jim Gatchell Museum. Jennifer Romanoski, Musuem Educator was in charge with assistance from Cynthia Twing, Director of the Library and FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY members, Priscilla Baker and Debbie Stoetzel.
