TML Risk Pool Gift to Benefit MTAS Library

The TML Risk Pool recently announced a gift to MTAS in memory of long-time Pool attorney Robert Watson. Robert passed away in the spring after a very short bout with cancer. He was beloved by many across the state. Dawn Crawford, Pool President/CEO, wanted to ensure a lasting memory of Robert.

The Pool's gift will name the MTAS library the Robert Watson Municipal Library Collection and will also provide funding for a seating area near the library in his honor. All this will happen at the new facility on University Avenue when we locate there in the fall.

We have promised Dawn, her colleagues, and Robert's family that we will host a dedication ceremony once the area is complete so that they can be a part of this legacy.

Stay tuned for updates on the event.
