Dino Dig & Cookie Excavation at the library

submitted by Laura Wohlgemuth, Manchester District Library event coordinator

Get ready for a dino-sized afternoon of discovery at the Manchester District Library! On Monday, June 29, from 12:30pm to 1:30pm in the City Room, children are invited to take part in Dino Dig + Cookie Excavation. Kids will become junior archaeologists as they learn how real excavation sites are carefully mapped and explored. Participants will practice plotting a dig site on a chocolate chip cookie before putting their new skills to work by excavating a toy dinosaur.

Note: the library’s Monday summer arts and crafts program now meets from 12:30 to 1:30pm. And please note that the Manchester District Library will be closed on Friday, July 3 and Saturday, July 4 in observance of Independence Day. Here’s wishing America a very happy 250th birthday!

Stop by the library or visit the event calendar for information about this and other great programs for all ages at the Manchester District Library (MDL). MDL regular hours are Monday–Thursday, 10am–8pm, Friday, 10am–6pm, and Saturday, 10am–2pm. The most up-to-date hours and the latest news are always available on the MDL website.
