We all know the question. We all dread the question. 

The “So, Tell Me About Yourself” workshop is a fast-paced, speed-style mock interview experience where participants practice answering the most common (and most intimidating) interview questions in a low-pressure, supportive environment. Attendees will rotate through short, one-on-one mock interviews designed to improve clarity, confidence, and how they present their story.

Join us for an out-of-this-world visit from Orbit, the Houston Astros’ mascot! Orbit will be swinging by Bear Creek to share his love of reading and libraries during this fun program for children. 

This program will be held in the children's area of the library. No ticket required, but due to limited space, seating is on a first come, first served basis!

Special thanks to the Friends of the Bear Creek Library for their generous support of this Summer Reading program!
