Former Rosholt Residents Pledge $50,000 to Expand Library
Couple who donated $50,000 to Rosholt library project come forward. (Stevens Point Journal, 1/27/2011)
Excerpt: Rosholt native Louise Lenz remembers the village's downtown as a bustling marketplace.
Lenz, and her husband, Ed, currently live in Wauwatosa, but for much of their lives, they split their time between the two villages, watching with some sadness the decreased activity on the once vibrant Main Street.
When they found out that a group of residents -- the Rosholt Library Group -- was spearheading an effort to expand the village's cramped public library, the couple made a pledge of $50,000 to the effort. Their only stipulation was that the library remain downtown.
