Holiday Craft Days take place during the entire day. Stop in during open hours and visit craft-making stations.
Let’s Talk Prepping meet at 6 p.m. Interested in learning how to prepare yourself and your family for possible emergency situations? Want some new ideas of how to make it through severe weather this winter. That’s the focus of this group.
Mark your calendars! Our annual Santa’s Fire Truck is back on Dec. 5 at 6 p.m.! Celebrate the holiday season with the Bluffton Fire Department and meet Santa, too! No registration is necessary, so bring the whole family to listen to a holiday themed storytime led by the Bluffton Fire Department, and then make crafts and get pictures with Santa afterwards. This program is sure to be well attended!
