Pizza! It's always a good thing-

Yesterday we had 22 pop in for pizza (thank you Aaron from Roma's here in Armada) and journal making. Great fun was had by all and the music was fab! A little Justin, Taylor and the Beatles were among the favs.

Everyone received their "Passports to Summer 2011" and were told to bring them in to be stamped weekly for prizes at the finale in August.
Don't forget about the "postcard contest" written on the back. It's going to make for some interesting conversations this summer.

Teen Summer Starts this Thursday!

Yep! You heard it right. This week we begin our teen summer here at the library with a pizza party Thursday after school. (it's a half day perfect time to stop in for a bite!)

It will be a great time to meet up with your friends and everyone will have a chance to make a summer journal as well.

This Thursday marks the last day of school, but the first day of the summer contest season. Everyone will receive a "passport" to record books and summer challenges.

All students entering middle school this fall and older are invited to join us. Sign up is not necessary but in order to be eligible for prizes you will need to have a "passport".

We will meet next on Tuesday, June 14th at 12:30. We will be getting a glimpse of Japan-kimonos and chopsticks!

Look forward to seeing you all here!
