The Winter Olympics are about to be underway! 20 years after the Olympic Winter Games were last hosted in Italy, Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo are the dual hosts welcoming athletes from across the globe to ski, snowboard, curl, and skate.
While the opening ceremony is on Friday, February 6th, some of the games have already begun. You can refer to this guide for which channels will be airing each event and what services are offering discounts. Peacock and NBC will be the primary services you can watch the games on. Their streaming schedule is available here.
Crestwood Library will be hosting a Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony Watch Party on Friday, February 6th, at 2pm. There will be some light refreshments available and we’ll be handing out some Winter Olympic Bingo Cards. Feel free to print your own and follow along at home, but be sure to bring them into the library to win some stickers and to enter into a raffle for a $10 Amazon giftcard! The deadline to hand in your cards for a chance to win the raffle is 5pm on Sunday, February 22nd.
We hope you’ll stop by and join us to cheer on your favorite teams!
