The weather couldn’t have been better for the recent Transportation Night at the Holmes Public Library in Halifax.
Officer Patrick Donnelly from the Halifax Police Dept., Steve Hayward, Highway Superintendent; Kim Kressler from First Student Inc. school busses, and Shamus Ricciarelli and Derek Coveney from the Halifax Fire Dept shared their time, expertise, and big shiny vehicles with more than 60 people.
Transportation Night is an annual event held every August at the Holmes Public Library and this year’s theme tied in well with the Holmes Summer Reading Program titled “Every Hero has a Story”.Children visited with local heroes from the police, fire, and highway departments, as well as the school bus company, asked them questions, and tried out the horns and sirens on all of the vehicles.
