ALL IN-LIBRARY & OUTREACH PROGRAMS ARE CANCELLED. Mr. Jason, Mr. Derek, and the rest of the staff are working on remote/virtual programs. They will be found here:
Fridays 2-5pm: Board Gaming Online--Even though the library is closed, the board gaming can't be stopped! Using a free online recourse called Tabletopia, Mr. Derek will run a game for those interested. Each week, a different game will be played from the catalgoue offered by Tabletopia. There are a number of them that we have played in the library which are available, including Castle Panic and Dragon Racer. This is a registration required event, because the limit on players for most games precludes us from hosting too many. The game chosen will be based on the number and ages of those registered.
Wednesdays, April 8, 15, 22, 29; 6-8pm: D&D Creative Online Sessions: Even though we can't get together in the library to learn and play Dungeons and Dragons, we can still enjoy the hobby. For four weeks, we will get together to continue to build on the setting that we have been using at the library. The sessions will include questions about how to play, how to DM, and how to create a fantasy setting for use in Dungeons and Dragons or other role playing games. This is a registration event that requires the registrant to have access to an online device with at least audio capabilities, and preferably video as well. CLICK HERE to register.
Green Screen Challenge: Email Mr. Jason a picture, drawing, etc. made by you or your kids that you want Mr. Jason to be in! He brought the green screen home and has an app to use to take your images and put them on the green screen and put him IN them! micsd@delcolibraries.org
