What was so special about Friday Night Special? Everything! We enjoyed food from Firewater BBQ, sampled local craft beers and enjoyed the tunes by Bourbon Aristocracy. That wasn't all! We played mini golf, shot some hoops and had our caricature drawn by artist Roger Hurtado.

Last night we shared an impressive evening with Tracy Clark and Sandra Jackson-Opoku, author of the cozy mystery Savvy Summers and the Sweet Potato Crimes. We had the privilege to experience a short reading, a superb dual interview, and a raffle. #ilovemylibrary
