Central Library will host a scavenger hunt in the library Monday. Family members can team up to answer library-related questions and discover the library. Create and take home a craft together on Tuesday, when the library will have craft supplies available for whatever you can dream up. Challenge someone to a board-game duel on Wednesday night with one of several board games available at the library, if you dare! Thursday, enjoy hearing stories from Cobb County local celebrities. These heroes will get to read their familys favorite story and share it with your family. Enjoy TV Turn-off Week all day, Friday when Central will host a paper airplane obstacle course. Dont forget the finale: Join the Central Library tradition of Saturday Storytimes at 11 a.m. to wrap up TV Turn-off Week.
