Event Highlights

We are thrilled to announce that the Victor Farmington Library budget vote passed and sincerely thank everyone who voted. The library will now be able to purchase more books and items to be borrowed, pay staff equitable wages due to the annual increase in the New York State minimum wage, and continue to explore a new library for the community.We truly appreciate your continued support, and look forward to providing the community with the exceptional service you have come to expect.

We would especially like to thank the Victor Central School District for holding our vote.

The recent successful installation of a Storywalk^® at the Victor Municipal Park by the Victor Farmington Library, Farmington Victor Kiwanis Club, Victor Parks and Recreation, and Victor Hiking Trails has led to further collaboration and cooperation between Victor Farmington Library Community Services Librarian Greta Selin-Love and the Kiwanis Club: another Storywalk is to be installed in Farmington in the spring of this year.  The library made the Farmington Storywalk^® the focus of their ROC the Day Fundraiser in December, and community members supported the effort with generous donations.  In January, Dave Plante, Kiwanis Club Member, delivered a $1,000 grant from the club to the library, bringing the project’s fundraising to a successful conclusion. 

Town of Farmington Highway/Parks Superintendent Don Giroux, and Town Supervisor Peter Ingalsbe helped identifythe perfect location for the new Storywalk^®, which will surround the existing playground at Farmington’s Town Park on County Road 8.  This addition will encourage literacy, physical activity, and families to spend time together in the great outdoors.  Watch for news about the Grand Opening of the Farmington Storywalk^® this spring.  Anne Ferguson of Montpellier, VT is credited with developing the Storywalk Project and in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library.  To learn more about Storywalks®, please visit victorfarmingtonlibrary.org/storywalk. 

Thanks to the Kiwanis Club of Farmington-Victor, Victor Hiking Trails, and Victor Parks and Recreation, today we unveiled Victor’s first Storywalk^®. Please visit our Storywalk webpage at victorfarmingtonlibrary.org/storywalk for activities related to the first featured book, Kathleen Blasi’s “Hosea Plays On”, or stop at the Victor Municipal Park to enjoy the Storywalk^® first hand.
