Amid midwinter’s arrival, the grounds of West Cobb Regional Library are scheduled for leisure and adventure of various types. From a number of Storytime events (for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers) to gatherings of might and magic with Dungeons and Dragons (for middle schoolers, high schoolers, and adults). There’s even a special 5e campaign of D&D on the 8th of the month; this event requires registration. And for particular creature-seeking enthusiasts, the library is scheduled to host a Pokémon Club.
West Cobb Regional Library (WCRL) also has a weekly craft club, focused on crocheting, for teens, adults, and seniors.
In light of starting the New Year with fun and excitement, WCRL has scheduled vision boarding events during the first week of January for teens.
Here’s a short list of other scheduled key events:
- Open Play Chess, January 3rd, Friday at 2:00 PM.
- Fraud Awareness and Prevention, January 7th, Tuesday at 5:00 PM.
- Winterize Your Home, January 14th, Tuesday at 2:00 PM.
- Tea and Talk: The Measure, January 23rd, Thursday at 2:00 PM.
Please note South Cobb Regional Library shall be closed for New Year’s Day on Wednesday, January 1st and for Martin Luther King Day on Monday, January 20th.
As always, check out that book, and get your creativity on. Your brain will thank you.
