The Bridge hosts several community events each year. Community Reading Day is our celebration of National Read Across America Day in early March. The Trivia Bee is our biggest fundraising event, and is held annually in late March. Our Volunteer Appreciation event is an evening of fun with friends and neighbors, and takes place in mid April.
The Bridge also participates in a number of community events – and usually we have CORI forms on hand and can help get you set up to volunteer. Check our our upcoming events page to see where we’ll be!
