RPL is accepting new participants now through July 31st at all locations and online at www.rpl.org through Beanstack. While you’re sailing the high seas to win prizes, don’t forget to take a break for a few jigs and shanties!

In June, RPL will host a variety of ocean-themed arts, crafts, and activities, including a special visit from Didgeridoo Down Under, and the Harvey Rabbit & Friends Show.
