Help us write our next chapter: “The Next 100 Years”

The former Learning Ladder property has been evaluated as the site for our potential library. This central community space holds a special place in the hearts of many Cottage Grove families. If voters approve a library referendum, and through the “Next Chapter Campaign,” the space would be transformed into a gathering place for our growing community, where connections, learning, and memories could continue. Funding from the 100 Extraordinary Women of Cottage Grove will fund the lobby of the new library ensuring it becomes a welcoming space for learning, community events, and resources that serve all residents.

All women who make a gift to the 100 Extraordinary Women campaign will have their name, or the name of a woman they want to honor or remember, prominently listed in the new Lobby.
