Join the Martinsburg-Berkeley County Public Libraries on Saturday, November 16, 2013 from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm to celebrate International Games Day @ your library!
International Games Day is “an initiative run by volunteers from around the world and [supported] by the American Library Association to reconnect communities through their libraries around the educational, recreational, and social value of all types of games” (American Library Association). This year marks the sixth anniversary of the start of the International Games Day @ your library celebration.
To celebrate in Berkeley County, a variety of games will be available for you to play at each of our four branches—Martinsburg (downtown), Naylor Memorial (Hedgesville), North Berkeley (Spring Mills), and Musselman-South Berkeley (Inwood).
You’ll find decks of playing cards and board games like chess, checkers, Candyland, Chutes & Ladders, Trouble, Mousetrap, and Sorry! There will also be gaming systems like Kinect, Xbox, and Wii available at all of the branch libraries except Naylor Memorial. If you plan to visit North Berkeley, please note that gaming events do not begin until 12:00 pm.
So come to the library on Saturday, November 16th and have fun playing our games! We can’t wait to see you!
