6:00 pm: Chess for All Ages!

6:00 pm: Chess for All Ages!


January 27, 2025

Join us for an engaging and educational evening at our weekly Chess Club! Held every Monday evening from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Fendrick Library, this club is open to all ages and skill levels, from beginners to advanced players.

Under the expert guidance of Neil Coleman, participants will have the opportunity to learn new strategies, improve their game, and enjoy friendly competition. Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting, this club offers a supportive and welcoming environment for everyone.

Our game evenings are great for kids and adults to put aside their blue screens on cell phones and tablets and have fun in a social setting. The game of chess improves concentration, pattern recognition, and problem-solving skills, and teaches valuable lessons in risk and reward. Play a calculated but risky move, and it may lead to a quick win or a rapid loss. Chess is recognized as an activity that can help preserve memory and cognitive skills. It teaches all players an important lesson: Success comes from accumulating small advantages. It's one of the secrets of life!

Please bring your own chess board if you have one, or use the boards provided by the library. We look forward to seeing you there and making new friends over a game of chess!

For more information, contact the library at 717-328-9233..

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in the Puget Sound over 30 years ago.

As she works, Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine, but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight tentacles for his human captors—until he forms an unlikely friendship with Tova.

Ever the detective, Marcellus deduces what happened the night Tova’s son disappeared. As his affection for Tova grows, Marcellus must use every trick his old, invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it’s too late.

Charming, compulsively readable, and full of wit, Shelby Van Pelt’s debut novel is a beautiful exploration of friendship, reckoning, and hope–a reminder that sometimes taking a hard look at the past can help uncover a future that once felt impossible.
