Pictured here are Jeff Pantages (left), library board chair Coun. Kirk Duff (centre), and Paul Pantages (right). The Pantages family donated $15,000 to the library in honour of their mother, Dawn Pantages. Dawn passed away in March, 2010 and it was her wish that some money be given to the library for the renovation of the children’s area. Dawn was a kindergarten teacher for many years in the Castlegar area and a volunteer at the Castlegar Library for 12 years. This is a wonderful donation for the library and an excellent in memoriam for Dawn Pantages and all of the citizens who have contributed to the library in this very thoughtful and meaningful manner.
