Drop and Shop 2010 Our first annual Drop and Shop was a success.  The YA Council entertained children, ages 4-9 with crafts--making decorated graham cracker houses, clay snowmen, playing games, and performing puppet shows and watching a movie.  Thanks for all the wonderful help.  

December Meeting--The Young Adult Council celebrated the Holidays with their annual Holiday Meeting.  Grab bag gifts were passed Left and Right as the Winter Story dictated.  An evening of Wii fun and  food followed.  The Prep meeting for the Drop and Shop is Tuesday, December 14th at 6:30.  Creative ideas welcome.  Area merchants have been invited to display flyers or gifts certificates to be raffled off. 

November Meeting The Young Adult Council decided not to have the traditional holiday party.  We are replacing it with a drop in story and craft time for ages 4-7, Tuesday, December 21st so that parents can do some holiday shopping.
National Gaming Day is Saturday.  Come and play video or board games with libraries across the nation.

Discussion was begun on how the library can become more of an online presence.  Suggestions are welcome.  The Creative Writing Club will begin the first Wednesday in January at 4 pm.  Come in and fill out a YA Book Brawl Voting Form and receive a coupon for a free ice cream.  The next YA Meeting is December 8th.
