MCKINLEY PARK — If you missed out on the Pokémon Go phenomenon that swept through Chicago in July, the McKinley Park Library has a free class to catch you up.
On Wednesday, starting at 5 p.m. at 1915 W. 35th St., the library will host a class all about Pokémon Go.
Pokémon Go sends collectors into the real world to catch these virtual critters. The game sparked a worldwide craze that even led hundreds of costumed, sign-toting Pokémon Go trainers to a meetup at Millennium Park's Bean.
Students at Wednesday's free class will first get a brief explanation of Pokémon franchise history. Then they'll download the popular smart phone app to learn how to catch 'em all.
Smart phones with an Internet connection are the only requirement.
To register, call 312-747-6082.
