Well to start, it's Teen Tech Week!

We had "Gaming Through the Ages" where we played
old school Mario on the Wii and Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) on PS2.

We also had "Karaoke" today where teens sang and danced their hearts out...
along with some of our very own librarians!

And tomorrow, we'll have a Teen Tech Week Movie,
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.

Check back soon for new pics!

Next week...

Monday (3/16) we'll have Food & Film as part of our cultural exploration.
This month's film is Bride & Prejudice.

Wednesday (3/18) we'll have "Unplugged" at 2:30pm
where we'll play board games and Uno.

What's Going On?

"Broken Hearts"

On Friday the 13th, we celebrated Valentine's Day with a twist.
Instead of chocolate and romance, we rolled our
own candy sushi and watched a scary movie.

Thanks to all who participated! We had almost 30 teens come
to check this event out. Want to see more like it, or have an
idea about a program you'd like to see happen?
Come find me, Ms. Holly, or Ms. Pam
and we'll do our best to deliver.

What's coming up next?
