It's Poké-Week!

By Savannah at the Library Station

Calling all Pokémon fans!

On the week of March 13-17, families can visit the Library Station or the Library Center to participate in lots of fun Pokémon-themed activities. 

Families with children grades K-6 can stop by the Library Station Monday through Friday afternoon from 2-4 p.m. for a new Pokémon-themed activity each day. Activities include Pokémon crafts, LEGO building, bingo, STEAM activities, and “Pokémon Detective Pikachu” movie showing (rated PG). Additionally, families can visit the children’s department at the Library Station for Pokémon-themed drop-in activities such as a scavenger hunt, jokes of the day and photo ops throughout the week. 

Families with children grades K-6 can visit the Library Center Wednesday from 1-4:45 and Thursday through Friday from 1-4 p.m. for Pokémon-themed activities such as “Pokémon: The First Movie” (rated G) and “Pokémon Detective Pikachu” (rated PG) movie showing, crafts, and a how-to session to learn how to play the official Pokémon card game. Families can also stop by the children’s department at the Library Center for a Pokémon-themed scavenger hunt. 

Keep an eye out because one week later on Saturday, March 25th, families with children in grades K-6 can attend a Pokémon Trainer Camp from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Later in the day, from 2-3 p.m., people of all ages are welcome to participate in a Pokémon trivia session. Registration for Pokémon trivia begins March 11th.
