Teen Spa Night - Rescheduled Makeup Date

Remember that huge power outage on that very dark, Thursday night? I scheduled a Teen Spa Night then--on March 9th. Now the makeup-date is scheduled for Tuesday, April 18th from 6:30 - 7:30 pm in the Teenscape. Get rid of some dry, winter skin and refresh yourself. We'll be making soap, bath salts and lotion. You can make a gift box for yourself or someone you know. See you there.

Teen Art Contest Winners

CONGRATULATIONS to the following art contest winners:

Tansa Harmonson
Nisa Sharp
Patricia Blake

Look for their art hanging in the Teen room in the near future. Thanks to everyone for submitting! Everyone had wonderful entries of manga and photos. Runners-up will have their art rotated onto the teen room walls in the coming months.

Harry and the Potters

Yes, it's actually a band from Massachusettes. Have you heard of Harry and the Potters? Well, they look and sound great, and they've been touring libraries and schools around the country. I don't want to categorize them, but they do sound very indie-rock-like. I'm a librarian. I can't help but categorize. : ] Perhaps they'll come back around to New Castle one day. In the meantime, catch them at Ball State's Student Tally in Muncie Friday, April 7th--details at their MySpace profile here.

Sunday Game Fest...

My apologies to all teens who'd come to Sunday's Game Fest--I'm sorry I had to cancel. My stepdaughter was very sick and her dad was gone for the day. I couldn't pass her onto her aunt or a babysitter while she was that sick.

In the meantime, don't miss DDR and pizza on Thursday at 6 pm in the auditorium! The next game fest is scheduled for Thursday, April 13th at 5 pm. See ya there.
