Water Valley Public Library
Water Valley had one of the first libraries in this area. The Library was started in about 1950 by a group of local ladies called the “helping Hand Club”. It was originally located in a small shack across the road east of the school. The Library is now located in the old school house known as the Chinook Creative Arts Centre.
