Dragon Training at Rodman Library Children are invited to Rodman Public Library on Friday, July 26 to take part in a Dragon Training Academy with world-renowned steampunk time traveler and inventor Brock Barnabas. The program will be held twice, once at 4:30 p.m. and again at 6 p.m. The programs are identical and children should register for just one of the two sessions. With his latest invention, the “Time Travel Trunk,” Barnabas will visit Rodman Library to recruit some adventurous kids to travel back to Medieval times. First, however, he will have to train the kids to defend against and tame down dragons using his amazing science-based inventions and techniques. Upon completion of their training, Brock Barnabas prepares to transport the kids to the past but inadvertently draws a dragon to the present. Kids will need to use their newly-learned skills to deal with the dragon. Join Brock Barnabas on an adventure, as he uses not only his many inventions of science, but brings elements of humor, high energy, creative play, and (of course) realistic looking animatronic puppets to the stage for an experience like no other.
