Try your hand at some oldie but goody games; test your skills at something new.  Backgammon, checkers, chess & foosball will be some of the games on hand for you to enjoy!  Sit back and enjoy a simple game of cards if that's your pleasure.  New games will be added periodically.

No registration necessary, just a love of gaming the old fashioned way.

No, you won’t be eating parsley!  However, you will be playing live action role playing games called “Parsley Games".  We will first explore "text adventure" games, the original.  Then we will play the live action version.  No vegetables will be consumed during this program!  Due to the challenging nature of the games, this program is only for kids in the grades 4-6.

Dig in the Dirt!

It’s our annual Dig in the Dirt! Program.   Come dig in the dirt, plant a seed to start a garden and have a good time.  Dig in the dirt to see what treasures you discover.   Take your treasures home in a bag you decorate.  Choose from a variety of seeds to plant: flowers, vegetables or fruit.  Everything you need to start seedlings will be provided for you.

Builders Club

Come build with your favorite interlocking blocks!  Each week we will have a challenge, and if you’re lucky, your creation will be chosen to be displayed in our glass case. 

We use very small builders pieces, so younger folks are encouraged to enjoy our toddler room during Builders Club.

So come on down to the Russell Library for some summer fun!
