Catherine MacLellan donated one of her guitars to the Summerside Rotary Library Thursday morning. MacLellan performed as part of a presentation dozens of musical instruments and $140,000 to maintain them and from Sun Life. The instruments are now part of the provincial collection and anyone with a library card can borrow one. The library is also accepting instrument donations from the public, like the guitar from MacLellan. The money from Sun Life will allow the library to get donated items checked over and made ready for lending. MacLellan (pictured) signed her guitar for Education Minister Brad Trivers at the Summerside Rotary Library June 6.
