This week, online sports manager Ryan Ritter, right, will take a trip to the library with his “Things to Do” online column.

If it’s too hot or too rainy or even a perfectly nice day the Lawrence Public Library has something that will interest just about everyone. From the children’s story times to movie rentals and a weekly movie series, there are plenty of free activities to fit the bill.

Each week for the rest of the summer, Ritter will profile a different “thing to do” in the Lawrence area that can be enjoyed by a group or by yourself.
