The city of Prairie du Chien’s Memorial Library Capital Campaign recently received a $2,500 donation from the Madison Gas and Electric Foundation. This donation is in addition to a previous $10,000 donation from the foundation.

“The Madison Gas and Electric Foundation has a tradition of contributing to causes which benefit the communities they serve,” said City Administrator Aaron Kramer. “We are extremely excited with this second contribution to the campaign.”

The Capital Campaign is also currently accepting participants in the 100 Families program. Donors will be asked to contribute $1,000 over a five-year period, to be paid in monthly ($16.67), quarterly ($50), or annual ($200) tax-deductible payments. The 100 Families initiative has the potential to raise over $100,000 toward the entire campaign. In addition, each family will have their names listed in the children, teen, or adult reading areas.

Additionally, the Capital Campaign will host a family-oriented “Mardi Gras” event on Sunday, July 24, from 1 to 4 p.m., on the street between the library and the city hall parking lot. The event will include games, food, music and dancing—fun for the entire family—to celebrate the 100 Families initiative, as well as providing an opportunity for everyone to see the proposed expansion plans.
