Rainy Day Ideas For Schroon Lakers

As our area gets a dose  of what we like to call "Liquid Sunshine" here in the 'Dacks, we've got some ideas to keep the kids (and you) busy!

All it requires is a trip downtown to the Schroon Lake Towne Store and Pinecone Mercantile.

There are some awesome vintage puzzles at Pinecone Mercantile and for the adults a terrific selection of hand curated cookbooks.

(Get inspired for dinner tonight!) 

Check out the ton of cool fun toys, gizmos, activities, puzzles, and books at the Towne Store. The Towne Store features one of the best collections of new books on all things Adirondack: from fiction, historical fiction and non fiction.

There's loads of kids’ books at the library. And don’t forget Schroon’s Secret Candy store inside the Schroon Pharmacy.

For more ideas check out the following blog post From Rock It Like  Mom: Julia’s 45 indoor kids’ activities. 

A trip to the Schroon Lake Shopping Mall, aka The Dollar General, will provide all of the materials you will need

Thursday's Arts And Crafts Market

No trip to Schroon would be complete without a visit to Thursday's Adirondack Arts and Crafts Market, this year sharing the lawn with the Schroon Farmers Market. All sumer long, from 10am  - 3pm in front of Town Hall. And be sure to check out the stunning photos of our area, taken by the extraordinarily talented Sharron Hozley Tyrrell

Helping The Schroon Lake Chamber with Wine, Cheese and Paint

Vikings in Schroon At Scaroon Saturday

The talents of the Adirondack Shakespeare Company's actors know no bounds. From the concept of stripping down Shakespeare to it's bare-bones, and performing those productions in natural and unorthodox settings, these talented thespians are breaking the rules with big smiles on their faces.

And smiles are what you are bound to see today when the company premieres its new production for kids,  Legends of the Vikings; Thor, at the Scaroon Manor amphitheater. Written by company cofounder Patrick Siler -- with some very cool costumes produced by the cast -- this production will amaze and delight children of all ages. The performance features live music by the cast, as well as a nine-foot giant frost giant!

It's at 3pm and is free with admission to the park. Bring a cushion for your bum, as the old concrete is a tad uncomfortable! For more information visit their website http://www.adkshakes.org
