ECCRC/Lighthouse Library is a 501 (c)(3) community resource center and library with a focus on reading and computer literacy. The main project of ECCRC is Lighthouse Library - an all-volunteer community library with a unique ocean theme an a 21,000 book collection. The organization is working to install a huge saltwater aquarium as a literacy project tool for local residents and visitors. Computer workshops, GED online courses, writing workshops, reading skills workshops, and Robotics workshops are offered at the site. Two unique sustaining projects stand on the site - Grouse Valley Lodge, a cabin with a loft, mock-fireplace, full kitchen, and a peaceful country view & the Treasure Chest - a fun thrift store with new items, clothing, small household items, and more - all proceeds from these going to fund ECCRC and Lighthouse Library. A 25-ft. working lighthouse stands in the library courtyard. The project is in part a tribute to a local teen who was killed in an auto accident. ECCRC provides many more services including resume writing workshops, assistance with social services, and college entry assistance.
