Ridgefield is a close-knit community. Everyone in town gets involved in annual community-wide events and the library is no exception. From Independence Day to Heritage Day to Bird Fest to the annual Hometown Celebration. These festivities often draw upwards of 10,000 people from other areas. We always have a good time with the many activities scattered about town, including parades, street dances, salmon bakes, chalk drawing, fireworks, musical entertainment, holiday bazaars, tree lighting ceremonies and much more.
