The
saga of presenting an activity or two each week for your attention continues. Before we talk about what’s on the horizon, once
again let’s recap a few you don’t want to miss.
Please register and come down on Monday, July 8, @ 6:30pm as ‘We DIG Big
Potatoes’ with kids (grades K-5) and also register for Wednesday, July 11, @
6:30pm (grades 5-12) for the ‘Liar & Spy’ t/ween book event.
We ‘DIG’ toad abodes! Dig into designing your own container garden
for the mythical creature of your choice. Pixies, toads, or fairies will be
welcome after you’ve created a home for them using natural and store bought
materials. (Think dish garden but much more creative.) Each of the class
times on Thursday, July 11th are offering the same exact
module. Please select only one class at either 4:30 or 6:30pm.
Register children in kindergarten to grade 5 in person, online, or over the phone.
We are ‘MAD’ about dinosaurs and we ‘DIG’ dinosaurs, too! Mad Science is back in town and they are
offering a special class for kids entering grades 1-4. This hands-on science workshop allows
children ages 6-9 to see how scientists learn about dinosaurs. Your readers
will dig for fossils, identify our extinct friends, and even get a cast of a
dinosaur tooth to take home! Register to attend on Monday, July 15, from
6:30-7:30pm. This class is limited to 25
children maximum and is geared for the suggested ages. Please only sign up
children who can definitely come and fit in the grade/age perimeters. Residents
only, please, for this module.
We are
going ‘BENEATH THE SURFACE’ with Todd Brodeur, two-time World Frisbee Champion! Join us for not only an amazing show of what
Todd can do, but after the show he’ll have Frisbees for all attendees to
practice some of his tricks. This
exciting event is on Wednesday, July 17th, at 6:30pm at Atkinson Academy.
Two-time
Freestyle Frisbee Champion, Todd Brodeur, educates, entertains and motivates
his audience with captivating Frisbee shows and interactive playshops. He
promotes staying active throughout your life by playing disc sports. He focuses
on healthy lifestyles, creativity, flexibility and balance, all aimed at
improving self-esteem and confidence. World Class Frisbee Shows and Playshops
teaches the next generation new ways to learn Frisbee skills that increase
hand-eye coordination and all will have fun and success while exercising.
Frisbee
flipping has been part of American pop culture for over 50 years. Across the
globe, the popularity of Frisbee sports has never been greater. Now you and
your group can watch a master of the craft and also learn and improve your
freestyle skills. This simple space age object will bring fun and excitement to
any group or class. Students will be inspired to play more Frisbee, be active,
be self-aware and continue to discover.
This event
is for ages 10 and up–or those ‘entering’ grade 4 and up. We encourage the
adults of the youth to stay for the show and participate in the playshop. Please
register all youth and adults who will be in attendance. This is a family event
for the older ‘kids’.
