Over 20 years later, the “fad” that was Pokemon is still going strong, with more ways to engage with the franchise than ever before.

Come share your love of all things Pokemon with other enthusiasts! Feel free to bring your device to play Pokemon GO, you’re trading cards to build decks and battle, or any of the many handheld video games to play and share with each other. As this new club evolves, we may also explore opportunities to watch the anime or play certain console-only games.

This group picks a book to read each month and comes together for a lively discussion on the second Wednesday afternoon of each month. For information on the latest title, please visit the Wednesday Afternoon Book Club page of our website!
