Big Bryant Thank You!
Bryant Library is very grateful to Mike Conklin and to Jodi Stuhl and her daughter for volunteering their time to help with the Babysitting Workshop once again this year! "Mike Conklin is a volunteer firefighter at Roslyn Rescue who has helped train the babysitters in emergency and fire safety for years. Jodi and her lovely daughter have also generously given their time showing the babysitters how a young child will behave and respond. Thank you! We couldn't do this without your help!" - Y.A.
