Wii at the Library
Seniors are invited to the Library on Wednesday mornings, 11 a.m., to explore the world of Wii.  No registration required.
The Library applied for and received a mini-grant through the Upper Hudson Library System.  Our community partner in this endeavor is the Senior Citizens Center.  With this grant we have purchased a wide-screen, wall-mount TV, Nintendo Wii gaming system, and a digital video camera.  The purpose of this grant is to teach Senior Citizens how to use the Wii system for exercise which will take advantage of the low impact nature of the games.  In addition, the Library would like to host gaming competitions and put the video on WVLT.
