Pi Day Parade & Party, Arcata Library • 03.09.2019 • Matt Filar

Young and old alike turned out at the Arcata Library, hosted by Branch Manager Susan Parsons. This year, since Pi Day actually celebrated on Thursday, March 14th (3/14), the event was held on Saturday to accommodate work schedules. With signs showing the number Pi (3.1415…..) carried out to thirty places, a rain-shortened parade went along the building and back. After listening to the story of Eratosthenes, the Librarian who measured the Earth, everyone enjoyed a slice of pie. This event is sponsored by the Friends of Arcata Library, Bandemonium, the HSU Science Club, A Slice of Humboldt Pie, and Hensel's ACE Hardware.
