Quidditch Match:
Chasers, beaters, and seekers came out to Washington Jr. High yesterday for the Naperville Public Library‘s Quidditch tournament. With the help of Loyola University Chicago’s Quidditch team, about 30 kids ran through drills and learned the rules of the magical game. Then it was time to put those skills to the test by playing a few matches. This is the fourth year the library has hosted the event, which always falls on Harry Potter’s birthday, July 31.
Summer Library Card Discounts:
Your Naperville library card isn’t just good for books – it can also score you some great discounts. Present it to participating businesses partnered with the library, and you can get special offers, which change each season. A full list of the summer steals you can grab can be viewed on the library’s website.
