Congratulations, Suzy Lemoine, Woman of the Year!

Congratulations to Library Outreach Coordinator Suzy Lemoine for being selected as “Woman of the Year” by the Chamber of Commerce!  Suzy was selected in part for her wonderful work on the Evangeline Project, which led to a beautiful original statue of Evangeline on the courthouse square.  She has been active in many special projects through the years that have benefited this parish.

For nearly 10 years, Suzy’s grant writing efforts have made it possible for the Library to provide the same high-quality programs for Summer Reading at each of the six library locations.  This means if a show is too crowded in Ville Platte, for example, you can go see the same show at Chataignier later in the week.  Suzy has also worked tirelessly with our Early Childhood programming that we provide parish-wide in the fall and spring.

Congratulations, Suzy!

Congratulations also to Ville Platte Mayor and Library Board Vice President Jennifer Vidrine, who was also nominated for Woman of the Year!  The Library was well represented in the competition by both Jennifer and Suzy.
