Knitting Group
Join us Thursdays from 12:30-2pm! A great group for both experienced and novice fiber artists! Just starting out? Let the experts give you a guiding hand! Experienced but occaisionally need a little bit of help trouble shooting? Come on by - we always have a regular group of folks who are willing to bounce ideas around. Bring whatever project you are currently working on and relax in a comfortable atmosphere and enjoy. Feel free to call us for more information - or just show up, we're happy to have you!
Pokemon Go Club
Meets every Monday, 5pm and Thursday at 1:00, players must have their own device to play on. All children and adults are welcome. Children under 12 years old must be accompanied by an adult. This is a non-competitive fun group; we don’t care what team you are on and neither should you!
