STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — If you need to take a break from technology this weekend, there will be a lineup of events to occupy your time as part of the National Day of Unplugging.

The organization curating the “unplugging” events across the country will host a scavenger hunt Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Little Free Libraries locations across Staten Island. Those who sign up ahead of time will be tasked with locating all the Little Free Libraries sites and solving the clues provided for the hunt.

Those who wish to participate must register ahead of time to get all the details. Participants will be required to wear masks and follow social distancing protocols.

If participants can’t make it Saturday, many of the libraries will keep their clue up until the following Friday.

The National Day of Unplugging is an annual campaign that promotes a 24-hour respite from technology on the first weekend in March. For more than a decade, schools, religious institutions and businesses have participated.
