Serving Clovis, Portales and the Surrounding Communities

Ask the News - Jan. 5

I see there are “Lego Club” meetings at the Clovis-Carver Public Library. What goes on at these meetings?

Simply put, Clovis-Carver Public Library Director Margaret Hinchee said those who attend “do Lego activities.”

While the event is called “Lego Club” it’s not actually a club, according to Hinchee.

“We spread out Legos on tables and they can build whatever they want,” Hinchee.

Participants build “cars, robots, all kinds of things.”

“We have the big Legos that they call Duplos and people can come in and be creative,” Hinchee said.

Hinchee said participants are “usually school-age kids, depending on the time we schedule it. A parent or guardian has to accompany kids up to 13.”

“There’s no leader for the event. Like I said, we just spread out the Legos and they build,” Hinchee said.

Hinchee said “Lego Club” is usually held every other week at 4 p.m. in the library’s Ingram Room. Schedules are included in the newspaper’s Events Calendar that publishes in print and online.

The first session of 2025 is Thursday.
