TAKE PART IN A SPECIAL MEMORY ... RIDE THE POLAR EXPRESS!

SATURDAYS, DECEMBER 8 & 15 @ 11 AM - 3 PM
SUNDAYS, DECEMBER 9 & 16 2 PM - 4:20 PM


The Polar Express leaves from Schlow Library on the second and third Saturday and Sunday in December. Families can hear the story read in the Children's Department and then ride the trolley through downtown to Santa's Workshop.

REGISTRATION BEGINS NOVEMBER 21. CALL THE DEPARTMENT TO REGISTER @ (814) 235-7817.

Children will receive a small drawstring bag with a bell and a coin they can spend at Santa's Workshop at the PSU Theater. Photos with Santa also available at Santa's Workshop.

The last reading is at 3 PM on Saturdays, or 4:20 PM on Sundays.


If the Polar Express pre-registration sessions are full, please come to the library on the day of the event for walk-in registrations and we will register you for the next available session. We have reserved spots for walk-in registrations each day of the event; simply come to the library to sign up on the day you would like to ride the Polar Express!

Due to the high volume of registrants, we do not accept email requests or phone messages. You must speak to a librarian in person or over the phone.

If you would like to ride the trolley as a group, each family unit must register separately. Because of high demand you cannot register on behalf of another family unit.
