Long Description:
The H.A.K. Club began in January 2017, formed by 4 students from the Hagerstown Elementary School and a librarian at the Hagerstown Public Library acting as sponsor. The students wanted to learn to play role playing games and there was interest in using it as a play test idea for the community outreach coordinator of the school interested in the benefits of students playing role playing games. The club has grown, expanded to two "level" age groups of participants.
The group has been written about in newspapers and has been part of two summer reading programs and been featured on the list of "Great Things Happening in Indiana Libraries" by the Indiana Library Federation (ILF). We want to share the origin, the challenges that were faced and the secrets to our success as this group has continued for over two years.
