Harry Potter Party at the Village Library in Cooperstown

Wednesday, October 21st at 6:30pm

The Library Club of Cooperstown Central School and the Friends of the Village Library are hosting a Harry Potter Party at the Village Library in Cooperstown on Wednesday, October 21, from 6:30–8:00 p.m. 

The evening will feature Harry Potter trivia contests, refreshments, and prizes. The event is free and designed for Harry Potter fans aged 10 and up. Participants are welcome to dress as Harry Potter characters. Participants will be sorted into houses upon their arrival.  Then they will attend classes to test their knowledge about Harry Potter, the characters of the books, and the overall series. 

The event is being planned by student members of the Cooperstown School Library Club, under the director of Media Specialist Michelle Hitchcock.

The Library Club is made up of students in grades 6-12 who help run book fairs and special events.  They meet for book discussions during the school year and participate in the Battle of the Books.  This competition consists of teams of four students who read twenty books.  Each team competes locally and the winners of that event then go on to compete against Fort Plain and Dolgeville in April.

For more information, please contact Michelle Hitchcock at the Cooperstown Middle High School, 547-8181.

These events are free and sponsored by the Friends of the Village Library.
