A former long-time editor of the local newspaper will have her name enshrined at the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre. The multi-purpose centre's library will be named after Margaret Hennigar, who spent close to 40 years with Lighthouse Media Group. LCLC Chair Paul Belliveau says it was a good choice to name the library after Hennigar.
The family's contribution of $150,000 to the LCLC means they have naming rights for 10 years. Hennigar passed away in 2006 after battling cancer. The Margaret Hennigar Public Library will open in the new LCLC. The future library is expected to be about 9,000 square feet. The multi-purpose centre is on track to open next spring.
