STEAM at the Cedar Creek Lake Library a success




STEAM or Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics is a new monthly homeschool themed day at the Library of Cedar Creek Lake.

Alix Brite, of Youth Services, wants to stage activities for kids, and she drew a larger crowd than expected.

Stations set up for the event included an exercise to open the children’s creative writing side, STEM games, marshmallows and toothpicks for construction, paper bag puppets to make new friends and numerous robot options to build out of Legos.

A new feature that folks at the library are excited about is the new 3D printer.

A set of dice were made as the children used their imagination, and a projector displayed the beauty of the creation. 

Parents of the participants enjoyed the opportunity to play with their kids or just get a few minutes of mommy time. 

Brite hopes to encourage networking between parents to make new friends just like all of the kids did during play time. 

Next opportunity for the STEAM homeschool day is November 8th from 2-3pm

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 17)

EXCELLENT. Slightly stained; 70 degrees; 0.00 feet at pool. Hybrid striped bass and white bass have made a full recovery from the spawn and are now back in the main lake in droves and are on a feeding frenzy. Look for heavy bird activity throughout the lake on flats and near the Dam on edges of drop offs especially on cloudy and overcast days. The Hybrids and Whitebass have started schooling in water from 6-14 feet at the dam and any wind blown shallow point or seawall. Late evening schooling action is also happening in shallow coves and points throughout the lake. Reports of great catches using silver or white slabs and spinnerbaits and retrieving off the bottom at a very slow retrieve to catch these fish in depths of 8-16 feet of water. The crappie have also migrated back into the main lake. Look for them under bridge pylons or under docks where the depths are between 3-10 feet. Guides have been reporting exceptionally nice catches on sunny warmer days. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service.
