My eighth and final Citizens Academy was held last week and it was great! Honestly, every session has been great.
Our final stop around the city departments took us to our New Port Richey Public Library.
My wife, Kelly, has been a lifelong supporter of this library, and she even sat as chair of the Library Advisory Board for nearly a decade. She loves reading and education, and fought for continued funding so that everyone would be able to have reserves to learn and be educated.
While she talks with the library team and is always supporting them, now I understand her love a little more.
Our library is tremendous in the resources it has, what it offers, and its unique programming for kids and adults. How lucky we are to have this tremendous asset right here in our community.
I also learned that they have a “Local Author” section and that my wife’s book is there. Of course she knew that already, but it made me proud.
During my tour, I also got my library card, something I should have done years ago.
if you haven’t been, I encourage you to check it out. You’ll be amazed at all they offer, just like I was.
This week, I will attend the Citizens Academy graduation at the city council meeting on Wednesday at 6 pm. If you’re in the area, stop in and join me. It’s really an honor for me. ❤️
