City improved library's landscape

Dear Editor:

On behalf of the Stanwood Library, we would like to take this opportunity to thank the city of Stanwood for the recent landscaping on the west side of the building. After a brutal winter, many of the established plants surrounding the building didn't survive, and the west side was hit especially hard.

We appreciate the city making the effort to revitalize the exterior of the library, a community center used by thousands of local children, teens, and adults each month. The healthy new plantings are being enjoyed by many and beautify 271st Street.

Special thanks to Tom Gitchel and crew for all their hard work.

We would also like to acknowledge Jeanine Borree, Louise Cheever, and Alanna and Norm Stone, and all devoted library patrons who spent hours weeding and pruning the flowerbed in front of the library as volunteers. What a difference you made!

It's great to be part of a community that cares about its library.
