Prepare to lift your winter spirits at Botetourt County Libraries. First, county libraries are teaming up with Botetourt County Parks & Recreation to host Puzzle Club, Scrabble Club, and card games. The events are great for all ages. The schedule is as follows:

  • Card Games on Fridays at 10:30am at Blue Ridge Library and Eagle Rock Library
  • Puzzles on Mondays at 10:30am at Buchanan and Fincastle Libraries; Wednesdays at 10:30 a.m. at Blue Ridge Library; Fridays at 10:30 a.m. at Eagle Rock Library
  • Scrabble Club on Mondays at 10:30 a.m. at Blue Ridge and Eagle Rock Libraries; Wednesdays at 10:30 a.m. at Fincastle and Buchanan Libraries.

Next, the county hosts the Strong Men and Women in Virginia History traveling exhibition. The annual project honors African Americans for their contributions to the Commonwealth. The exhibition will be on display at all Botetourt Library branches throughout the month of January.  During opening hours, stop by and learn about some incredible people in Virginia’s history.

  • Blue Ridge Library: January 3rd-6th
  • Buchanan Library: January 9th-13th
  • Eagle Rock Library: January 16th-20th
  • Fincastle Library: January 23rd-27th

Strong Men & Women in Virginia History is a joint project of the Library of Virginia and Dominion Energy. For more information, please visit https://edu.lva.virginia.gov/strong-men-women-in-virginia-history/.

Finally, there is better way to start the new year than with a reading challenge offered by county libraries. This month’s Beanstack Challenge is to see how many Caldecott Award and Honor books Botetourt County can read. The libraries’ goal is 1,000 books. Sign up by visiting https://botetourtva.beanstack.org/reader365.

Stay up to date with what’s happening in Botetourt County libraries and the parks and recreation departments by signing up for alerts at www.botetourtva.gov/notifyme or following them on Facebook and Instagram.
