The Pequawket Foundation just pledged $5,000 to the North Conway Public Library’s capital campaign to renovate and expand their historic building in North Conway village. Built in 1911, the building was previously enlarged in 1917 and 1988. The library said in a press release they plan on expanding the size once again as well as the function and technology of the library. Board President for the library Neill Osgood says the library is going to have a new community room while also enlarging the children’s areas, adding an office for the library director and wants to make the library ADA compliant. He says the donation from the Pequawket Foundation helps with the renovation and the expansion but that more money is needed to install state-of-the-art infrastructure such as computers, lighting, furniture, and educational materials.

In honor of Shark Week on the Discovery Channel, Gino had a special guest join him on the Magic Morning Show today… Ocean Conservationist, Filmmaker and Author, William McKeever who talked about his new book, Emperors Of The Deep: Sharks – The Ocean’s Most Mysterious, Most Misunderstood, and Most Important Guardians. Click below to just get a sneak peek on what Emperors Of The Deep is all about and learn about one of the ocean’s most magnificent creatures and what we can do to help them survive.

 

The book includes interviews with world-renowned shark scientists who have examined the Mako, Tiger, Hammerhead, and Great White sharks. It dispels the myth of sharks as man-eaters. Believe it or not, humans have killed 100 million sharks just in the last year while human fatalities from sharks were only 4 WORLDWIDE. Sharks are in trouble. An estimated 32% of open ocean sharks-including the scalloped hammerhead and whale shark-are currently threatened with extinction.
