People might not think about exercising when they think of their library, but the Syracuse Library helps make connections with physical activities. Anyone that can walk into a room is qualified to join easy chair yoga.

An instructor with years of experience leads a half-hour class that coordinates breathing with yoga poses. Bring a large towel for a prop and come use the library’s chair on Tuesdays at 10:15 a.m. Advanced chair yoga meets on Thursdays at 9:30 a.m. after an optional half hour of walking when we partner with the Syracuse Trails for a walk. Enter the class by knocking at the back side door of the library at 9 a.m.

There are some special events to join this spring. Geocaching is a fun way to locate hidden places by using GPS coordinates. On June 9 Geocachers are meeting at the Syracuse Library to take a picture to post as part of the 15th International Geocaching Flashmob Event. This is a nice way to meet people that are exploring the world through Geocaching.

The Syracuse Library and the Trails are sponsoring a team to compete in the fourth annual Mudtastic Classic. Come to practice and get costume rules to be on the team on June 23.

Don’t forget that walking is a good way to get toned, so spend the evening at the Cruise In on May 18 from 5 to 7 p.m. The Friends of the Library are handing out popcorn and there are many cool cars so that it is a fun evening.  

Other Week’s Happenings

WorkOne is at the Syracuse Library every Wednesday from 1 to 3:30 p.m. They are here to assist anyone regardless of the county that they live in.

Teen Gaming is rolling around for another month’s battle on the Wii U and Xbox. The challenge is for young adults on May 17 from 5 to 7 p.m. Three controllers are provided but Nintendo DS will sync to the eight-person game.
