Titanic

The RMS Titanic sank in the early morning hours of April 15, 1912 in the North Atlantic Ocean, four days into her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City.  It is a tragedy that still fascinates people today.  Which is why we're inviting 4th, 5th, and 6th graders to Discover the Titanic on Friday, April 14, 2023 at 10:00 a.m.  We'll explore the facts and find out just how cold 28-degree water feels.  Then, each person will receive a passenger identity and follow a series of clues, escape-room style, to find out their fate.  Registration is a must for this event.  Sign up online or by phone (205-444-7830) today.  (This is during Hoover City Schools' e-learning day, so space will fill up fast!)

Want to learn more about the infamous voyage?  Check out a book from the library!  Simply look for Dewey Decimal number 910.9163.
