Donation Nets Naming Rights In New Sheep River Library

(Page 5)

Legacy Oil+Gas Inc. presented a major donation of $15,000 to the new Sheep River Library on February 18th.
A donation of this size merits naming rights, so the fireside reading area in the new library will be called the “Legacy Lounge.” This will be the library's focal point, centered on a two-sided gas fireplace faced with floor-to-ceiling stone, flanked by leather sofas and chairs, washed in natural light from large west-facing windows. The Legacy Lounge will become a community centre for reading and social interaction.
The donation was presented in the future Legacy Lounge space, by Legacy's Rathe Mokelky, Field Superintendent, Turner Valley Field Office.
“Legacy Oil+Gas believes in community investment,” Mr. Mokelky said. “We invest in communities where we have a business presence and where our employees work and live. And we're really pleased to be funding the furniture and amenities that will make the Legacy Lounge a great place for people to meet and relax in the new library.”
Diane Osberg, chair of the Sheep River Library's board of directors, was on hand to receive the donation, along with Holly Quan, president of the Friends of the Sheep River Library Foundation.
“This is the most generous corporate donation we have received to date,” said Ms. Quan. “We are very pleased that Legacy Oil+Gas has stepped up to support this project and we expect the Legacy Lounge to become THE place to meet in Turner Valley.”
