On this weeks update of "Fionna's Patriotic Adventure”, Fionna Fayette™ chose to Discover Fayette PA by visiting The Story of Linden Hall.

Fionna learned that this mansion was built in 1913 and was home to one of Pennsylvania's most successful businesswoman, Sarah Boyd Cochran. After the deaths of her husband and son, Sarah took charge of the family's coal and coke businesses and became a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist.

Fionna noticed that this location looked quite different from others she has visited as it was inspired by Sarah's travels through Europe. Sarah built Linden Hall on a 785-acre estate near Dawson. This mansion features 35 rooms and was considered one of the finest homes in western Pennsylvania. Over the years, it has served many purposes and continues to welcome visitors today as a conference and training center.

Sarah also supported education, community causes, and women's rights, leaving a lasting impact on Fayette County. Linden Hall stands as a reminder of both her accomplishments and the region's rich industrial history.

Be sure to look out for her next adventure in Fayette County, PA for the Fayette County, PA 250th.

The Summer of '26 Reading challenge has commenced. It's running from June 1st - August 15th. A little different this year. You still set your own goals and go at your own pace. We have ordered a large number of books for our middle readers especially, that said we have some guidelines:
1.Must be books from the library
2.There will be a two-week limit you can have a book out so it's fair for others to be able to read the same book.
3. If the book is Newbery Award /Honors book it will count as 2!
4. Children who can not read CAN participate if their parent/caregiver verifies they have read the book to the child.
There will be no summer picnic to wrap up the event, rather prizes will be awarded as the children achieve their goals. Different prize levels will be in display in the library.
Hope to see you there.
