Lexington Public Library to host 2nd Annual Back to School Carnival
The Lexington Public Library will host its 2nd Annual Back-to-School Carnival on Saturday, August 19th from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. The festivities will take place both inside and outside of the library. Admission to the family-fun event is free.
“We usually celebrate the end of the school year, but we at the library feel like the start of the school year offers just as much excitement! Opportunities to make new friends, find new interests, learn new things—what's more thrilling than a brand-new school year?”, said Emily Hubbard, Library Associate in Children’s Services.
Attendees of the event will find a multitude of activities including carnival-style games, a magic show from the Great Jasino (10:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.), themed music by Tuba Dave, and a dunking booth. Spin the prize wheel and play all the games for a raffle entry to win a backpack stuffed with school supplies. Backpacks will be available for each of the following age groups: 0- 5, 6-12, and 13-18. Free popcorn, ice pops, and candy will be available to enjoy.
