Join us at the Barbara Bush Branch as we celebrate our community's first responders!

Our neighbors who come to the rescue when we have an emergency will be in uniform and bring their vehicles, too! You can ask them questions about their career, see their equipment up close, and imagine your own future as a community helper.

We will also be hosting a Trunk-or-Treat! It will practically be Halloween so why wait? Get a head start on your candy collection when you visit the library.

This event will take place in the large parking lot, prior to the library opening
