  A local elementary school library has been ruined due to a frozen pipe bursting and flooding their library.  Page Elementary School was set to compete in the Oregon Battle of the Books next month where children are put in teams of 4, read 16 books and then compete in an all-out knock-down drag-out fight of knowledge against other schools in the state.  Last year they placed first but with their entire library waterlogged and almost all the books ruined, they may not be able to compete at all this year!  In addition to that, the struggling school is left with hardly any books for the rest of their eager students!!!  If you would like to help them compete and rebuild their library, please go to the following website for a list of books for this year's Battle of the Books:

  Of course, any and all appropriate books are welcome.  For more information, please contact Page Elementary at (541) 744-6407.
