Baldwin's Leland Community Center Getting Special Send-Off

BALDWIN, PA - The former Leland Community Center will host one final bash before it closes and is converted into the new Baldwin Public Library.

An oldies dance party featuring live music from Tumblin’ Dice will be held May 12 from 7 to 11 p.m. The $25 tickets, which can be purchased online or at the library, include dinner, beer and snacks. The dance is a BYOB event

Proceeds from the event will benefit the renovation project.

Borough officials are targeting early 2019 for the opening of a new community library. First opened in 1964, the library has been been in the old Wallace School building since the 1980s.

It will feature:

• About 2,100 square feet of more space than the Wallace Building.

• On- and off-street parking with designated handicapped spaces.

• A large meeting space for community activities.

• Separate areas for adults, teens and children.

• Expanded mobile computer stations and new digital lending material.
