The ceremony had aspiring words from Board President Susan Goodwin and Bridgeport Mayor Jim Christie. Crystal Hamrick, Children’s Librarian invited every child to come forth to cut the many colored ribbons that crisscrossed the entrance to their new area. Each child barely contained their excitement and quickly made their way through the entrance, heading in different directions to explore the reading area, new shelves, and more.
It was a wonderful day, a celebration of the opening of the new children’s library, and an illustration of what the library plans to offer the community for years to come. 
Parents and children make their way in to the newly opened Children’s Library.  Kids find the games and activities available on the children’s computers fascinating.  Dogs and trainers from the library’s monthly Dog Day Afternoon program greet attendees.  Children enjoy visiting with one of the Dog Day Afternoon pets.  Terri prepares to bend balloons into animal shapes.  The Vaughn’s performance delights attendees.  Get Ready, Get Set ----  CUT THE RIBBON!!  Kids helped pick up the 180 feet of ribbon and bow used for the ribbon cutting,  Everyone enjoys the cake and refreshments. |
