Buchanan, along with AML Assistant Director Victor Gonzales, library assistant Ginger Holland, local parents and kids listened to weather-inspired music, enjoyed snacks and drinks and came up with creative signs and chants disparaging the Texas heat and calling for cooler temps.
“I’m tired of wearing my oven mitts when I drive,” Holland yelled.

The event was the brainchild of adult services librarian Rebecca Buchanan, second from left, who said she was inspired by her previous job working the night shift as a police dispatcher. “Driving home at 7 in the morning after working since 11 p.m., sometimes I need to scream a little bit. I have healthier outlets now but every now and then I need to get back to my roots.”

Hilltop Elementary student Paige Maldonado, 9, said she came out because she likes yelling.
