There was quite a crowd in attendance at the Lafayette Library and Learning Center Nov. 9, including some fictional characters from a galaxy far, far away. Why? Because, well, storm troopers!

The Lafayette Rotary Club was providing the barbecue. The Friends of the Library had a huge sidewalk sale and the Historical Society was on hand to answer questions, even rolling out Lafayette's favorite fire truck, Old Betsy, for the LLLC's 10th birthday celebration.

Along with crafts and story time with children's authors, dancing and musical entertainment was provided by the Peter Pan Foundation, the Contra Costa Performing Arts Society Student Jazz Ensemble and hula with Kaleo o Ka "Aina."

And there was of course plenty of cake.
