Teen Advisory Group June Meeting Notes

The TAG met this past Saturday afternoon.

We started out by discussing how the Bake Sale went, which was wonderfully!  Thanks to everyone who baked or volunteered their time.  We earned $133.00 and we used it to purchase an Amazon Kindle Fire tablet to give away as a summer reading prize this year.  We plan on doing the bake sale again next year since it was so successful this year. 

We discussed how we would decorate the YA room for the Summer Reading Program this year around the theme "Spark a Reaction."  We threw around ideas of gears, sparklers, and (of course) glitter.  We decided we would work on the decorations after the volunteer orientations later this month.

The upcoming programs are:




Wednesday, June 11th – Teen Knitting Club 5:30pm
Saturday, June 21st – Volunteen Training 1 – 2:00pm
Wednesday, June 25th – Teen Book Club – Distant Waves – 6pm
Thursday, June 26th – Volunteen Training 2 – 3pm
Saturday, June 28th – After Hours Teen Kickoff Party 7:30pm
