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?
