Chess, bagpipes and more playoff hockey!

Here’s what’s going on in Niagara over the next 48 hours.

STUFF TO DO

Today: The St. Catharines Public Library is hosting a Kids Chess Club at their Merritt Branch in the Program Room! Kids aged 6-9 are invited to come learn the game, or sharpen their skills on the chessboard between 4:00pm and 5:30pm. No cost at all, all you need is a valid library card.

Wednesday: The Red Hot Chilli Pipers take to the stage at the FirstOntario Performing Art Centre's Partridge Hall! This 9-piece ensemble consisting of bagpipers, guitarists, keyboards and drummers have been rocking the world for over two decades, and will now show St. Catharines what they're all about.
