All teen writers are welcome. Writer Jacqueline Burke will share her enthusiasm and skills. Guest authors may also come to share.  Bring your writing so you can apply what you learn during free writing times.

Join us for fun with LEGO and other engineering challenges. Build something tall, moveable or stable, and challenge yourself to build & create.

Whether you need volunteer hours for school or are just looking to be more active in your community, the library would be pleased to benefit from your time.
