C. M. Wendelboe, author of “Death Where the Bad Rocks Live” and “Death Along the Spirit Road”, will be at our library to talk about his books on February 7, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. Mr. Wendelboe served in Vietnam and returned to a career in law enforcement. He served in many small towns around the Indian Reservations in South Dakota before moving to Gillette to find his niche as a sheriff’s deputy for 25 years. Please set the time aside now to attend and hear the background. If there are any budding authors that attend, he will talk about writing also.

The library parking gets congested at times. If you are not a library patron, please try to park in other areas especially when the library is open. And honor the handicapped parking spot. Thank you for observing the signs.
