The Wolfeboro Public Library celebrated Star Wars Day — May 4 — with a special Jedi Training Class, sponsored by the Friends of the Wolfeboro Public Library. Elementary-aged jedis-in-training constructed their own lightsabers and learned dueling techniques from London Summers and Jennifer MacLeod during the afternoon workshop last week.
