Week 5

It's hard to believe but Summer Reading is already halfway over!  Don't worry, there is still plenty of time left to earn lots of raffle tickets.  Also, if you haven't signed up yet, what are you waiting for?  Come on down to the YA department and get going!

We have another busy week ahead of us - enjoy!

For those of you who signed up, tonight (Monday, 7/16) is the Graphic Novel Art workshop with the CT Humanities.  The program will begin at 6 PM.  This program is full so, unfortunately, no one else may register at this time.

Tuesday, 7/17 @ 1 PM - The Hampstead Stage Company will be here for an afternoon of Improv acting!  Test your acting abilities out or just sit back and enjoy the show.

Wednesday, 7/18 - Teen Craft Night.  We will be making jewelry using beads and safety pins.  The 6 PM time slot is full but I did open up a 7 PM time where there is still a few spots left.  Call the YA desk to sign up.

Friday, 7/20 - Healthtrax will be back at 12 PM for another fitness class!

See you all at the library!

Friday (7/13) at 1:30 PM - It's finally time for the CT Ghost Hunters to visit!  I can not think of a better way to spend a spooky Friday the 13th.  Drop in to hear about some of the eerie things they've seen throughout Connecticut and check out the equipment that they use.

Busy week!  Hope to see you all at the Library!

Week 3

Hello, Teens!
It's hard to believe, but we are already in to Week 3 for our Own the Night program.  Last night we had an amazing art instructor come to do a Pastel Art workshop.  Everyone's versions of Starry Night were amazing - I wish I had done one, too! 

We have one drop-in program this week which will be on Friday.  Healthtrax will be here to do a Core Fitness program.  Come in and work out at the library - you'll earn raffle tickets!

Just a reminder, the library will be closed on Wednesday for the 4th of July.  So make sure you stop in by 8 PM Tuesday to grab whatever books/materials you'll need to get you through Wednesday. 

Also, make sure to stop in this week with your Goodie Coupons - it's double candy week!

Have a great week!
