Lego Tournament January 30!

Have you seen the new window display of the Library Annex? We are "Loving Lego" this month. Building with Lego blocks is such a great and imaginative way to spend time during the cold winter weather! So after visiting the Lego Store at Disneyland last March and reading articles about libraries holding Lego Tournaments, I asked the Youth Services' staff to plan an event here. Have we been busy!

On January 30th, 9 - 11 AM the Youth Service Department at the Library will hold a Lego Tournament for individuals, teams, and/or families. We are not setting an age category for this event as we would encourage whole families to build something together. Parents need to use their judgement on whether to bring small children with their older ones, as Lego blocks can be a choking hazard.

You may use your own Legos or ones that are here. Some projects may be started at home and completed here. (See the guidelines sheet.) We are asking that attendees pre-register by January 25 and pick up guidelines for the event. (We will know which room space is needed.)

Building time will be from 9:00 - 10:30. Refreshments will be provided during the judging between 10:30 and 11:00. Prizes will be awarded a little before 11:00. You do not have to compete in the judging if you do not wish to do so. Just come and have fun.
