Are you interested in making some big decisions for teens at the library? This group meets monthly to plan future teen nights, suggest new material for the library and lots of other things. Our first meeting was great with lots of ideas for future teen events at the library (including a Rock Band night, karaoke night and anime night!) and plans to put together an online teen newsletter.
Want a say in what happens here at the library? Email us with your name and number and try coming to a meeting, just to see what it's like. Oh, and there will always be treats. Just so you know ;)
