Congratulations to our 2026 raffle winner: Deb Galstad, a first-grade teacher at the Lake Mills elementary school. Deb has donated the sculpture to the Jenni Nichols Outdoor Learning Center located at the elementary school. A gracious gift for everyone to enjoy. The attached photo features Deb Galstad alongside artist Thomas (Bud) Skupniewitz, and the striking garden lawn sculpture. The Friends of the L.D. Fargo Public Library pledge $50,000 to library expansion.
