BLOCK Fest® is a research-based exhibit that raises awareness of early learning, especially in math & science, by offering a hands-on block-play experience for families and young children.
Play with five block stations while learning the educational value of block play.
We will be hosting 2 sessions, one from 9:15am-10:15am and another from 10:30am-11:30am.
Additionally, we will have door prizes that those in attendance will be eligible to win!

100+ people had an awesome time with “Bees: Dinosaurs and Beyond!” by Keith Spillman, a Yadkin County beekeeper you can find Tues and Sat at the Yadkin Farmers Market! We also had a TRex on the loose but it didn’t hurt anything 😂

🦖 Dinosaur Scavenger Hunt Reminder! 🦕

The adventure begins tomorrow, June 1st, and runs through June 12th!

Don't forget to stop by the library to pick up your Dinosaur Scavenger Hunt Packet and Adventure Bag before you begin your journey. The packet contains everything you'll need to participate, and the Adventure Bag has extra pieces needed to solve a few puzzles!

Prefer to print your own packet? A digital version will be released tomorrow, June 1st, at 8:30 AM. Participants printing their own will still need to visit the library to pick up their Adventure Bag.

Be sure to check out the attached photo to see where puzzles have been placed around town. Additionally, there are 3 puzzles at the library. The librarians will tell you more about those!

We hope everyone has a wonderful time exploring our community over the next two weeks. Along the way, you might discover a business you've never visited before, learn something new, try a new experience, or even find a delicious new favorite treat!

Thanks again to all of our amazing participating businesses and community partners for helping bring this prehistoric adventure to life.
