Come out and compete for “know-it-all” bragging rights and chintzy prizes at Bossard Trivia Night.

Each month, take part in Bossard Library’s Trivia Night and see how much you know about current events, science, history, pop culture, and more. Trivia Nights usually occur on the first Tuesday of the month at 6:00 PM but can be scheduled for a different date and time.

Participants can play individually, be matched up with others to create a team, or bring a team of family and friends. The maximum number of participants for each team is 10 people. Clever but appropriate team names are encouraged.

This will be a multi-round competition with questions ranging from easy to challenging. Teams will submit answers on paper so no one will have to stand up in front of everyone, push a buzzer, or feel self-conscious.

Trivia begins promptly at 6:00 PM, so plan on arriving a few minutes before to get situated with your team.

Trivia Night is free and open to teens, adults, and families with children ages 13+.

The winning individual or team will receive a nominal prize, have their photo placed on the Library’s Facebook page and, most importantly, will own the bragging rights to Bossard Trivia Night for the month.

Light refreshments will be served.

The French City Writers’ Guild meets at 1:00 PM on the second Saturday of the month.

Are you interested in creative writing? Do you want to be able to share your ideas and written works?

If so, you are invited to join the French City Writers’ Guild. The Writers’ Guild is an open forum writing group that enables you to share your works and meet others who share your passion for writing.

Our goal is to provide a comfortable place for writers to read their works to an audience and receive constructive feedback, hear the works of others, network with other local writers, and hone their craft.

Meetings are for those ages 18+ as, on occasion, works with more mature content may be presented and discussed.

Light refreshments will be served.

If you would like more information about the Writers’ Guild, please contact Randall at rfulks@bossardlibrary.org, or 740.446.7323 x 236.

We hope to see you there!
