ALBION – A new “Sled Library” is now available at Bullard Park where people can borrow a sled to go down the big hill. There is a rack to hold the sleds when people are done.

Susan Oschmann presented the idea to the Albion Village Board about a year ago after Erin Smith of Albion saw a Facebook post about one in Buffalo.

The rack was made by the Albion DPW with the Lake Country Pennysaver and Orleans Hub providing the signage. The Albion Recreation Department also supported the effort. The first sleds have been donated by Brad London, Mike Schuck and Dan DeCarlo.

The sign urges people to “Have Fun, Return When Done.”

Susan Oschmann is happy with the new sled library. She said the sleds should allow more kids and families to enjoy sledding on the hill this winter.
