...Fin!

Well, our first shot at a Teen Summer Library Program has come to an end. I think it went pretty well. The Pizza Party on Friday was a big hit. For future reference, four large pizzas and 20 breadsticks are not, in fact, adequate for feeding 15 teenagers. ...in case anyone was wondering. Thank you to everyone who came to the programs. These things don't happen without your participation. Keep in mind that I always like to hear program ideas from the people who would be attending the programs. So if you have any ideas for next year or for programs for the rest of the year, please contact me. Rumor has it the theme for next years summer program is "the arts".

My deepest thanks to the following people and organizations:
Jreck's subs, for feeding everyone at the Game Night.
Gamer Craze, for letting us borrow a controller for the Game Night.
Tyler Flanagan, for letting us play Rock Band, oh yeah, be sorry you missed that one, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl!
Cole DeSantis, for letting us use his Wii.
Rainbow Crabtree, for sharing her time, knowledge and food for our nutrition workshop.
Master Frank Palumbo, for sharing his knowledge and expertise of martial arts with us.
Beverly Ewart and Kelly Woodruff, for sharing their time and creativity for our scrapbook workshop.
Sarah Scafidi-McGuire, for sharing her time and expertise of yoga with us.
Donald Thompson, for sharing his knowledge and experience to teach us first aid and CPR.
Pizza Hut, for feeding everyone at the Pizza Party, or trying to...how does that much food disappear that fast?!?
Video Plus, for donating a $20 gift certificate to be given away in our Library Crawler Card drawing.

Thanks to everyone! I really think this was fun. Now send me some ideas on how to top this next year!
