Pietie Birnie
Memorial Gazebo

Thanks to a generous donation given to honor the memory of Pietie Birnie, the Etna Library was able to construct a gazebo in the fields of Hayes Farm Park.

​

The Etna Library capitalizes on its beautiful backyard with our ever-changing Story Walk and special outdoor events (including past events like Mysterious Mushrooms, Birdhouse Building, and Bug Safaris). The Pietie Birnie Memorial Gazebo serves as a central spot to gather for events such as these, offering protection from the weather, gorgeous views, and built-in benches. From story times and art projects to nature talks and themed picnics, this gazebo allows the Etna Library to expand and improve its community offerings in exciting ways.

​

Aside from its use by the library, residents can also enjoy the gazebo as a place to gather, sit and chat, and rest and recharge after strolls through Hayes Farm Park and the King Bird Sanctuary.​

Stop by for a librarian-led story time, a special library event, or just to sit back and savor rural Hanover's natural beauty! The Pietie Birnie Memorial Gazebo - gifted by several in remembrance of one, for the enjoyment of all.
