Elementary students in Crown Point area schools participated in a Read-A-Thon to raise funds for the new Crown Point Community Library, scheduled to open this fall. Crown Point High School and Taft and Wheeler Middle Schools also held fundraisers for the library. The money will be used to make the children’s area in the new library a special place.
