Victorville Connect - May 5, 2022 |
|
|
We now have lending libraries in front of four of our Victorville Fire stations thanks to local Boy Scout, Mahkai Shelton. Mahkai collaborated with our Fire Department to build the lending libraries for his final service project to become an Eagle Scout—the highest advancement rank in Boy Scouts of America!
We hope you’ll take a book or leave a book for others to enjoy. The lending libraries can be found at Fire Stations 312, 313, 314, and 315.
We’re grateful to have Kai's Unity Book Boxes at our Victorville Fire Stations where community members can visit and share their love for books. Learn more at vv.city/shelton.
