NEW 2025 - Storybook Walk Installed Along the Pepperidge Path at the Park

The Willard Park and Recreation and the Huron County Community Library - Willard Branch partnered to install a Storybook Walk along the Pepperidge Path at the Willard Park. The 18-station storybook walk is beneficial in several ways:
Provides early literacy opportunities for young children.
Provides quality time between young children and their families or teachers.
Promotes access to other books at local libraries.
Promotes outdoor physical activities.
The stations were paid through generous donations to the library from residents and the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Will-Ply-New Post 3430.
