Glacier Hills has a lovely little library. For many years it has been managed by retired librarians living here in our community. The residents have done an outstanding job but time has taken its toll and they feel they cannot continue to maintain the library as they have in the past. We have provided volunteers to help them. The residents have been very appreciative but the volunteers lack expertise in library management. The residents would like to turn over control of the library to a volunteer or team of volunteers with library skills.

Mission Statement
Glacier Hills Senior Living Community is a nonprofit, continuing care community for senior citizens. Four areas of living comprise our campus;
- The Meadows - independent living
- The Manor - assisted living and some independent
- The Pavilion-traditional long term care including Eva's House our memory care unit

Description
The job description of a Glacier Hills volunteer is to share joy. Volunteers from the local community accomplish this in a variety of ways. Volunteers help residents engage in daily Life Enrichment activities, including exercises, art, small groups and activity carts. Some volunteers share their musical talents. Volunteer participation in larger events such as concerts, parties, and holiday decorating also enriches the lives of residents.
Some volunteers spend time one-on-one with a resident. They might read a book, write letters, visit the Glacier Hills library together or stroll in the garden. In addition, those interested in serving in a spiritual capacity can find many opportunities on our campus through coordinating with our Chaplain.
