Have you been over to Princess Anne Area Library lately?

If not, this is your nudge to get outside, enjoy this beautiful weather, and see what’s right in your backyard.

📍 1444 Nimmo Parkway, Virginia Beach, VA 23456

This place isn’t just about books anymore. It’s a launchpad for trying new things, getting your family out of the house, and making the most of your time.

Through the Virginia Beach Public Library’s “Library of Things,” you can check out everything from GoPros and coding kits to outdoor gear and games. You can take home up to three items at a time, no cost, just curiosity.

Think about that. Instead of buying something you might use once, you can try it, enjoy it, and bring it back. That’s smart living. That’s community.

So here’s the move: don’t let a great day pass you by. Grab the family, head over, walk the shelves, ask questions, and walk out with something new to experience.

This is one of those resources that’s easy to overlook, but once you start using it, you realize how much opportunity has been sitting there all along.

If you’ve checked something out before or attended a baby open play, share your experience. Let’s get more people taking advantage of what we already have.

What a great turnout this weekend at our Lago Mar Easter Egg Hunt.

It was awesome seeing so many families out, kids running around, and the community coming together. There were 2,500 eggs across the park, with 1,500 from strolllagomar and 1,000 from the Lago Mar Civic League.

A big thank you to Stroll Lago Mar for letting us partner up on this event, and to all the local vendors who came out and helped make it a great day.

We’ll be sharing some photos from the event below. If you took any, feel free to drop them in the comments.

Looking forward to doing more of this together.

If you go to the beach even a few times a year, this might actually be worth signing up for.
