Strolling through Aspinwall Fireman’s Memorial Park just got a bit more picturesque.
Cooper-Siegel Community Library opened its permanent StoryWalk, a display of colorful, oversized children’s book pages that line the path at the park in upper Aspinwall.
It is the first permanent display in Allegheny County, Jill McConnell, library executive director, said.
The project was paid for by a $10,000 grant from the Rotary Club of Fox Chapel Area.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony was hosted April 30 with about 35 people, including those from the library, borough, Rotary and the wider community.
“Many people thanked us for installing the StoryWalk in the well-used park,” McConnell said. “We were very pleased with the turnout for the opening event.”
