OBOB @ RICHMOND

OBOB has been a meaningful (and FUN!) part of the Richmond culture and of Richmond families' experiences for many years. Through a tournament-style trivia competition based around 16 diverse books, OBOB encourages kids to not only read, but to read from a variety of different genres and authors that they may not have been inclined to try on their own. It’s also a great opportunity to get to know new and old friends better, build problem-solving skills, and practice teamwork. Learn more about OBOB at Richmond.

CONGRATULATIONS TO BOOK LIZARDS, THIS YEAR'S RICHMOND OBOB CHAMPIONS!
