Following a "Vocational Tour" of the County Library, members of the Sonora Sunrise Rotary Club wanted to enhance and brighten the children's section of the library. Discussions with the County librarians and major fundraising efforts resulted in commissioning local artist Tracy Knopf to create the "Nature's Wonder by Day and Night" mural to compliment the library's theme "From Pastures to Pines."
Through the generous support of Tuolumne County residents and businesses, the mural and educational border were created, 252 books were purchased; and furniture and carpet were replaced. Even the book drop was transformed into a hungry Bear!
