Narrative:
Residents of Fillmore are invited to come together for a morning of conversation, connection, and community spirit at the upcoming Coffee with First Responders event, hosted by our local Bank of the Sierra.
 
This event will take place on Tuesday, May 19th, from 9:00 am to 10:30 am, at Bank of the Sierra, located at 527 Sespe Avenue, and will feature first responders from the Fillmore Police Department and Fillmore Fire Department.  Community members are encouraged to stop by, enjoy a cup of locally brewed coffee provided by our very own El Abuelo Coffee and Bakery.  Come out and engage in friendly discussions with the first responders who serve their community every day.
 
Coffee with First Responders is all about building relationships.  First responders want people to feel comfortable approaching them, asking questions, and getting to know them beyond the badge. 
 
Guests will be treated to complimentary coffee from El Abuelo Coffee and Bakery, a local community partner known for its delicious pan dulce and organic coffee.
 
The informal event provides a welcoming space for residents to share ideas, express concerns, or simply chat with first responders in a casual, friendly setting.  No speeches or agendas – just good coffee and good conversation.
