The facility itself is really large and it shares the same property as Solano State Prison. CMF has a super large parking lot that gets full of employees (especially during day shifts). The yard that the inmates use oversees the parking lot of the employees, which I always thought was strange but something that people get used to I guess. The main guard at the entrance was also super nice to me when I signed in and out. Most of the guards here are super nice and overall respectful to inmates here. The facility is kept clean (compared to other facilities that I have worked in). The prison itself is large, had a psychiatric wing and hospice care unit. I really enjoyed my time working here and with all of the inmates that I got to work with as well.

This review is for FRIENDS OF VACAVILLE LIBRARY (FOVL) operating the WORDS OF WONDER (WOW)…read moreBOOKSTORE located inside this Vacaville Cultural Center Library. The WOW bookstore is open several days per week. It sells donated, used books, CDs, etc., and it is staffed by volunteers. I signed up to volunteer, and was really excited to learn more about donating time to the Book Store and its Board of Directors, as discussed with Volunteer Coordinator Michelle. However my experience when attending the group orientation onsite was met with prejudice and discrimination by Director Cathy. When I arrived for orientation the library staff at the Information Desk directed me to the bookstore located inside and to the right. However the bookstore door was locked. I could see the lights were on and someone was inside so I tapped lightly on the door. Cathy unlocked the door slightly, and looked at me sternly. We were face to face - less than 1 foot apart. I introduced myself, advised I was referred by Michelle, and was there for Volunteer Orientation. Another new volunteer walked up behind me, and said she "was here for the same thing." This volunteer remained about 2 feet behind me. Cathy smiled at her, opened the door wider, reached around and behind me, and shook the other volunteer's hand. Then while looking solely at the other volunteer Cathy told us where to find Michelle and the others (at a table 100 feet away). It was obvious Cathy didn't want to acknowledge, touch or speak with me. The other volunteer was not a woman of color. I am. And since I was clean, well groomed, and well dressed, I can only assume Cathy's indifference and lack of respect was because of a prejudice against women of color. At the very least she didn't feel I deserved the same basic courtesies she extended to the new volunteer standing behind me. Her actions said she didn't value me or my contributions. Shocked by Cathy's overt act of racism I managed to move towards and even participate in the orientation. Alhough I couldn't stop thinking about the way I had been treated. I did tour the bookstore briefly after the group session, at Michelle's urgence. She was excited that I had experience working on and with Boards, and wanted me to meet Cathy. I try to look for the good in people so I decided to give Cathy another chance. However after Michelle introduced us Cathy still didn't give me the greeting she had given my counterpart earlier. No hand shake, no greeting, no smile - just demanded, "tell me (her) about your work history" - with a snarl and superior demeanor. I stopped her interrogation-type inquiry and extended my hand stating I would like to "formally introduce myself." She shook it reluctantly. Still no pleasantries. There was no mistaking that she was speaking with me because Michelle told her someone was interested in volunteering in the bookstore and on the Board of Directors but when she saw it was me she couldn't hide her prejudice, again. I left there knowing I could not volunteer my time or services to an organization whose director looked down upon people and treated them differently because of the color of their skin. I provided feedback to Michelle, and reminded her we are a diverse nation, and expertise and contributions come in all colors. And told her that based on my experience I could not and would not be donating my time or services to FOVL WOW. As long as the Cathy's are in charge here African American or others of color won't be treated with the same dignity and respect. So that's a big no for me.

We had our car broken into a couple weeks ago because I accidentally left it unlocked (because I'm…read morehuman). They took several items including a spare key to our car, our camera, as well as some other items. Well, my husband ended up seeing the dude who was breaking into cars and followed him right to his house 2 streets over from ours. The police were there in probably less than 2 minutes and long story short, they got our truck keys back as well as making some well deserved arrests. A few days later our neighbor saw our camera being sold on instagram and called us immediately. We called Vacaville PD and they told us that they may not get to it today because it was a property case and they had other things that took priority (totally understandable). A couple hours later they called and said they had our camera! I am so thankful for for everything they have done. All of the cops we have dealt with have bent over backwards to help us. In my experience they are a great group of people who really care about the community. So THANK YOU VVPD!!!! You guys are killing it!!!

The Walmart in Alamo ppl just park in handicap there is no enforcement at all! I like the police but they do nothing it seems until after after something happens!

It was on the second or third floor and I swear to you I can still smell the scent of the old book Goosebumps books. But that was years ago and Suisun City was able to construct this fantastic building next to Suisun Elementary and the Croc Center. It's small but the librarians there are extremely friendly and helpful. All around, this is a great addition to Suisun City.

That being said, I found myself pulling out several books for my daughter as I walked around inside. I found three of my own childhood favorites that had faded from memory in just minutes after arriving. I love when that happens. Having visited the Fairfield, Vacaville and now Suisun library, I'd say that despite its size, this library is just as great as any other in the area. Lots of windows, comfy seating for story time and an adequate amount of work tables for the size of the space. We will definitely be back, glad I stumbled upon this gem a few weeks ago!

The other libraries that participate in story time do not lock the doors. Walked around the library and it was exactly what I remembered it being from when I used to go as a child. The only thing that's changed is that there are A LOT of homeless in the front and back of the library which is unfortunate. I don't think I'll be back to this library with so many others to choose from that don't have homeless hanging around outside. The back of the library near the water is still nice
