Pokémon GO! Club | All Ages
Did you know the West Linn Public Library is a Pokémon Gym and has 3 Pokéstops located around the outside of the building? Every Wednesday during the summer, we will have a table outside where you can meet other Pokémon Go! enthusiasts, team up to battle raid bosses, and complete a route created by the librarians. We will have a lure or two set at the Pokéstops, so there will be plenty of Pokémon to catch and prizes to be had!
Calling everyone who likes fun in the sun! Join us on Tuesdays at Willamette Park, 1100 12th Street, on the Main Stage for some exciting entertainment! We offer two programs, at 10am or at 11:30am! (We also have a special Saturday program this year that will take place at the Library.)
Bring your picnic, a blanket, and your library card so you can checkout books while you are there. You might also want to bring water, a hat, and sunscreen. In the event of bad weather, updates will be posted on our website as well as our Facebook page.
