The Clearmont Community Library Foundation started in the early 70s, when a group of Clearmont residents purchased the old Garretson Store Building on Front Street for $1. The old building, built in 1904, had been general store for many years, but by 1972, it had been neglected for many years.

The group, with the help of high school shop class, that cleaned up much of the building before remodeling could start, replaced the roof, put down new flooring, added bathrooms and kitchens.

The building now houses the Clearmont Library, a branch of the Sheridan County Library system, as well as providing meeting and activity.

Brannian Auctions LLC will again be donating their expertise to auction the items. As in previous years, they will add a lot of fun to the auction.

Monies raised will be used for maintaining the community center and library building in Clearmont.
