The Pan-Mass Challenge North Shore Kids' Ride will be one of many PMC Kids Rides held in neighborhoods throughout New England and beyond. Kids from Gloucester, Rockport, Beverly, Salem, Ipswich, Manchester, Hamilton-Wenham and other North Shore Towns will be riding in this event. Through the PMC Kids Rides program, nearly 6,000 cyclists between the ages of two and 15 will ride between one and 26 miles in mini-bike-a-thons to raise money for cancer research.

Come by to play checkers, Scrabble, cards, Monopoly, Jenga, Uno or any other board game that you wish to bring or access one of these games that the library already owns. We also have some fun games like Catan and Betrayal at House on the Hill for Teens. NO SIGN-UPS, just drop in!
