This program is a mix of basketball and St. Patricks Day fun for the whole family. Prior to the event families will register via online in order to reserve a space in this after library hours program. Families will join the librarian in a special storytime featuring songs, rhymes, and stories all themed to St. Patricks Day and Basketball. After the storytime families will be challenged to work together in order to find leprechauns hiding in the library. With the library being closed, families will have the opportunity to find these leprechauns throughout the entirety of the space. Similar to an egg hunt, the family with the most found leprechauns by the end of the timer wins! Afterwards families will be treated to popcorn and beverages and have the opportuntiy to watch the Basketball/Leprecaun themed movie Luck of the Irish. The purpose is to provide families an opportunity during this holiday to do something fun and memorable together from the safety and comfort of the library.
