TEEN ADVISORY BOARD Meeting – Octopi the Library

OCTOPI THE LIBRARY! We are developing a teen advisory board for teen programming here at the library! We’re looking for teens who would be open to sharing their input with us about creating better teen programming at their public library. Our next meeting will take place on Thursday December 2 at 2:30pm, outside at the Frontier Middle School Picnic Table Area. In case of rain we will meet at the Frontier Media Center. There may be snacks! We want to keep meetings short, easy, and fun because we know how busy high schoolers are. It is possible that serving on this board could earn you Community Service credits – check with your school. Please contact Andrea at adeiuliis@cwmars.org to sign up or for more information. Or just show up. Stay as long as you can!
