Get a Clue Escape Room
Lonsdale Public Library Story Room
Thursday, Jan. 20-Saturday, Jan. 22

Oh no, Mr. Boddy has been murdered!  You just came for a party, but now YOU are the main suspect.  The police will be here in 45 minutes.  If you can’t prove who the real killer is, then it’s off to prison with you.

The popular event for teens and adults returns!  Unlike other escape rooms, ours is completely free!  Use your wits to solve a series of puzzles as a team.  We will register up to 5 people per session.  Please call the library at 507-744-3977 to pre-register.  Suggested for ages 12 and up.

Halloween Party

Uncategorized, , , ,

WHEN:  Friday, October 29th, 4-6 pm
WHERE: Lonsdale Public Library
WHAT: Halloween Party!!!

Visit the mad scientist’s laboratory to see creepy experiments, examine terrifying specimens, and drink a potion, if you dare!

Enjoy our indoor amusement park where you can play mini-golf, toss a ball into a monster’s mouth, do some boo bowling or pin the alien in its spaceship!

And don’t forget the library, where we will have crafts for little and not-so-little kids, coloring and worksheets, a spooky photo backdrop, trivia for grown-ups and lots of yummy treats!

Because of the size of the crowd, we ask you to please wear your masks.  Thanks for helping us keep our community safe.

Our Food for Fines drive starts the day of the party and goes until Saturday, November 6th.  Donate any unexpired non-perishable food, household item, or cash to the Lonsdale Area Food Shelf and we will waive up to $10 in late fees from our library.

Drop-in crafts

Events, ,

We will be sharing a drop-in craft every week in August.  Come in Wednesday through Saturday and make one of your own.  During this Olympic year, we’re seeing a lot of flags.  What would your flag look like?  Design your own!
