Join us this spring for Family Saturdays! Explore how history connects us all during this hour-long storytime program designed for children ages 4 to 10 and their families.

This month’s story is The Perfect Fit, by Naomi Jones and James Jones, a book about geometric shapes and celebrating differences. We’ll read the book together and conduct a shape-based scavenger hunt in TOYTOPIA. Then you’ll have the chance to invent your own toy made of shapes.

Looking for a fun family activity this Easter season? Join Chapel Hill Church for our 4th annual community Egg Dash! With over 5,000 candy-filled eggs to find, this free event is a perfect adventure for kids and families. Bring your Easter baskets and arrive early, as the hunt begins promptly at 11 am and eggs disappear quickly!

During the event, you can also participate in a Tacoma Street Ministries Kit Build in the lobby to assemble hygiene items that go in Compassion Kits for those in our community experiencing homelessness. The event also features a food drive for FISH Food Bank. Please consider bringing unopened, non-expired pantry items to support local families in need.

14th Annual Pierce County Bike Swap @ Tacoma Community College (Lot A)
Apr 19 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
14th Annual Pierce County Bike Swap @ Tacoma Community College (Lot A)

The 14th Annual Pierce County Bike Swap is a FREE family-friendly community event put on by Ride Together Pierce, where anyone can sell or buy used bicycles and bicycle parts. We encourage you to bring a helmet if you plan on test-riding bikes.

At the Bike Swap, Ride Together Pierce is planning on providing:

  • ??BIKE CORRAL: Buy a bike or sell a bike at our Bike Corral. If you have 1-2 bikes to sell, this is the recommended route. There are no listing or selling fees. You do not need to sell a bike to buy, or trade. Come find your new-to-you ride!
  • ?QUICK FIX: Make sure your future bike is safe to test ride by taking it through a quick safety check first by a professional bicycle mechanic.  A mobile bike repair shop will also be onsite for more complex repairs.
  • ??BIKE TEST RIDE AREA: Test out your potential new ride on a secure, short route through the Swap.
  • ??LOW-COST HELMETS: Provided by Downtown on the Go, bicyclists can purchase affordable helmets and get a proper helmet fitting.
  • ??BIKE MAP MASTERS: Discuss best biking routes with seasoned local riders at the Bike Map Masters station.
  • ?BIKE SKILLS PRACTICE AREA: Folks of all ages and abilities can practice safe riding skills such as balancing, scanning, stopping, turning, and more.
  • ?FOOD TRUCKS: Enjoy delicious sweet and savory food from local food trucks.
  • ?BIKE INDEX AND BICYCLE BENEFITS STICKERS: With a Bike Index sticker, you can add security to your bike by registering it to the Bike Index directory. A Bicycle Benefits helmet sticker can be used to receive discounts at participating businesses in Pierce County (and nationwide).
  • ??VENDORS: We are inviting local bike shops and bike-related organizations to show off their products and share the latest information with you on bicycling in Pierce County. If you have several bicycles or bike parts to sell, we recommend you register as a vendor. There are no vendor fees. Registration open now!
