Story Quest™
Every day
Story Quest™ is a choose-your-own-adventure story come to life. You’ll be given the first page of your adventure at the library. From there, the choices you make will lead you around town, dodging spells or fighting dragons before you’re led back to the library in hopes of putting yourself back to normal. Participants receive a passport to track their travels. Story Quest™ is designed for kids and their grown-ups.
Get Your Own Microgreens
Anytime
The doctor said to add in some salads but you don’t know where to start. With an estimated 40x the nutrients of their full grown plants, microgreens can get you on track to your goals. Come to the library and get your daily serving of microgreens (and a few recipes to try with them) completely free.
Book Walk™
Anytime
The book club that takes you for a walk! This month’s book is The Borrowed Life of Frederick Fife. Read it (laugh, cry, love) and then come in to grab a map and discover questions and fun facts about the book along a walking route. It’s part book club, part treasure hunt, part very fun afternoon. The walk is about 3/4th of a mile and reported to be most fun when done with a friend.
