The Essex County Library announced the launch of a new active collection at the Cada Branch in Tecumseh, allowing patrons to borrow equipment for outdoor and recreational activities.

The library said it provides residents with exciting new opportunities to stay active and engaged.

The collection includes a pickleball set, tennis set, swim passes for municipal facilities, skate passes, walking poles, and a disc golf set—all available for checkout at the Cada branch.

“These donations from the Town of Tecumseh align perfectly with the library’s mission to provide resources that enrich lives, and we’re excited to see residents take advantage of these fun, active options. Having these items available to check out with your library card make it easier than ever to get moving,” said library board chair and Tecumseh deputy mayor Joe Bachetti.

It was made possible by a donation from the Town of Tecumseh.

These items are available to check out beginning April 11 at the Cada branch, located at 13675 St Gregory’s Road in Tecumseh.
