Upcoming Event:Teen Self-Defense Class
At the Rogers Public Library (and at the Young Adult Department especially) we aim to offer ways to equip our young adults with tools they may need in a wide variety of situations. Therefore, we’re pleased to again offer a self-defense class geared toward teens, run by Rogers Police Department Officer Keith Foster, on June 15th from 2:00pm to 4:00pm. He’ll lay out some basic principles of defending yourself, and ways to avoid or get out of a difficult situation.
This event is free and open to ages 13-18. No previous self-defense training is needed. Registration is required. Sign up at the library or online while places remain.
Teen Self-Defense Class, Thursday, June 15, 2:00-4:00pm in the Friends of RPL Community Room
