Picture yourself starting the new year in a cozy chair with your beverage of choice (maybe from the Raffle), and a good book from the Blue Willow Bookshop presentation. Next let’s heat it up a few degrees with memories of our Special cameo guests…the HFD Calendar Firemen.

West Houston’s favorite bookshop, Blue Willow serves the Greater Houston area with opinionated advice and our favorite book club books. They’ll bring their top picks of the season - cozy reads, laugh-out-loud favorites, and can’t miss titles that belong on your “must-read” and “must-gift” list.

When they’re not putting out fires, saving lives, ad rescuing puppies, the Calendar Fireman are tou raising funds supporting the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association Charitable Foundation, Burned Children’s Fund. Spoiler Alert…They’re bringing the newest 2026 calendar for autographing. YES! You can snap a photo with Houston’s finest (and most handsome!) heroes! Both presenters will have items available for sale at the January luncheon, so bring your preferred method of payment.
