COLFAX - The Athenaeum Club of Colfax donated two books on fly fishing to Whitman County Library.
Thomas McGuane's "The Longest Silence, Life in Fishing" and "The Orvis Fly-Fishing Guide" in memory of Shirley Tulin. She loved fly fishing, according to Kathy Buchholtz, spokesperson for Whitman County Library.
"The library book project is a favorite program among club members. Since 1963, the club has donated books to give back to the community and to remember members who have passed," stated Buchholtz.
The Athenaeum Club of Colfax began in 1895 and is one of the oldest women's clubs in Washington State.
The club contributes to the community funding civic improvements, the library book project, and art and poetry contests for junior and senior high school students in Colfax.
