The Marble Falls Daybreak Rotary Club Adoption Day is approaching once again, and will feature opportunities for area residents to learn about foster parenting.

The event will take place on Saturday, Nov. 15, starting at 10:30 a.m. at the Burnet County Courthouse Annex, 1701 East Polk Street.

Rotarian Eddie Arredondo said this year’s Adoption Day will feature 15 area children legally adopted by new families.

“Last year, we did eight. We feel the more, the merrier. We’re inviting other counties to work with us on this,” he said. “Lampasas County is working with us this year. They don’t have any adoptions from their area, but they understand the importance of it.”

Adoptive families will be able to commemorate the moment with a photo and will be presented with gifts from the organizations involved with the special day.
