Audubon's Updated Public Library
By: Sheilder McFeilder & Cornerback
Did you know that the Audubon Public Library just got renovated. The library is on Oakland Avenue next to the Senior Center. An easy way to find it is you can look in the sky and there is a giant tower. There are many tables you can work at. The kids section is in the back now. There are many chargers where you can charge your devices. There's many different types of books. The sections are spaced into Adult Fiction, Young Adult, Biography, Juvenile Fiction, and Children's Books. The library director's name is Akiema Buchanan and we interviewed her.
Cornerback: Why did you renovate the library?
Akiema: It would give the library a modern look.
Shielder McFielder: Do you think it’s more organized?
Akiema: It is more organized and gives people a chance to relax and unwind.
Cornerback: What do you think about the renovated library?
Akiema: It's more open and bright.
The kids section is very nice. It has more activities kids could do. It has small picture books, comfy chairs, and couches. There are two rugs, a mini table and chairs. There are toys and little shelves. It is a way to keep the kids entertained.
The Audubon library used to be old fashioned with wooden shelves and less space. The kids area was in a small corner with not many things to play with. It wasn’t very colorful and was kind of plain.
There are many events that go on at the library. In the summer there’s always a theme throughout the summer. Last summer the theme was Color Our World. The Audubon public library has summer reading programs. They do crafts and play reading bingo.
Next time you're bored, remember you could always go to the library and explore through a book.
A Gluten Free Holiday
By Dragonlover
If you don't know what gluten free means, it means that people that are gluten free can not eat any wheat or flour. They have to get certain food or else they will get sick.
Even though I am gluten free, I still have an amazing holiday with my family. We bake gluten free cookies every year, and I think they taste amazing. The name of the cookie batter that we're making this year is Pillsbury Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Premium Cookie Mix. And all candy canes are gluten free, no matter the flavor.
Whenever buying gingerbread houses, my family makes sure to buy gluten free ones. Even though we don't eat them afterwards, I just feel a lot more comfortable assembling them knowing I don't have to wash my hands one hundred times afterwards.
BOO! Did I scare you? HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! Everybody the one day where you can eat as much candy as possible and your blood stream will be filled with soda and smarties. Gest what Halloween is on a Friday so you don't have to come to school like all tired and sick. Anyways the Halloween parade was a massive hit. Everyone loved it. The costumes were insane this year. I could believe my eyes ! By: Moe
Favorite Holiday Traditions
By the Phillie Phanatic
Everyone has a favorite holiday. Many people choose Christmas as their favorite because they get to receive presents, eat lots of food and cookies, watch movies, and listen to music. I interviewed a few kids and asked them their favorite traditions. One kid from 6th grade said that he always has a brunch with his family on Christmas day and opens presents. Someone from 5th grade said that they love Christmas Eve because they get to watch movies, have food, and they get very excited for the next morning. Every kid I interviewed said that they always love to wake up and open presents. Every kid says that they always like to eat tons of great foods. All the kids are very excited and there are only 9 days until Christmas!
The Kari J Walk
By: Cupcake and Miss Preppy
On Sunday, May 19, 2024 Audubon hosted a walk for Kari J (Kari Jenkinson). The walk was around Audubon Lake.
During this walk, the Helping Paws club at Mansion sold bracelets to help raise money for the Kari J scholarship. The Helping Paws raised about $260 while selling the bracelets.
Another thing that happened during the Kari J walk, was that they were selling shirts to help raise awareness, and money, for the scholarship.
Finally there was a raffle to win a purple yeti and that was another way that they raised money for the Kari J scholarship. Then to show respect there was a speech that everyone listened to. But the main big part was the walk and so many people came to show their respect but not only people that live in Audubon but also around 100 teachers came to walk around the lake to show their respect for Kari
J. This walk has been held every year since this heartbreaking loss of Kari Audubon has hosted a walk to raise money for Kari J scholarship that Audubon High School gives out every year.
As our whole town of Audubon we all show our respect on this day by walking around the lake and wearing purple. This day is to show our respect to a family that lives in Audubon and has lost a family member Kari J to a horrible sickness.
# ALL THE WAY FOR KARI J
