Help the library build an interactive website about the history of our town!

During the COVID pandemic, the library built a History Scavenger Hunt as a fun, safe and educational activity for the people of Guilford. We’d like to update it with a new design and an interactive quiz that people can complete on a phone, tablet or computer.  If you’d like to learn some html, css and javascript, and you’d like to help with this project, sign up for the autumn Coding Challenge for Teens!  

Free and open to all ages 12 and up. Registration is required.
