140 Kids Get Backpacks At NS

Betty Williams is proud of NS' latest successful project, "On August 14, 2015, the Friends of Brentwood Library sponsored our Back to School Bash and Back Pack Giveaway at NS and 140 children received backpacks stuffed with school supplies.  This is the second year of the Back to School Bash and we were able to give out even more backpacks than last year. The families were then able to go across the street and enjoy hot dogs and other refreshments.

Again this year the church across the street allowed us to use their parking lot and JSO blocked off the street.  Children climbed on the big red truck from JFRD and the biggest hit was sounding the siren in a police cruiser. This is always a wonderful community event.  The parents were very appreciative and everyone had a good time.
