UNFORTUNATELY........

Unfortunately, some of you kids, despite our best efforts, persist in reading the awful "Series of Unfortunate Events" by Lemony Snicket. Incredibly, in an effort to undermine your unhappiness, we are offering
An Unfortunate Afternoon at the Library on November 6th
for all those underpriviledged individuals with nothing better to do than play ghastly games, create creepy crafts, and eat slimy snacks.... I'd stay away if I were you! But if you are, sadly, hooked on these books, you may want to visit :

"Rock and Roll Over Dead"
Mystery at the Library
,
coming October 22nd.

The murder mystery needs some terrific teen detectives (don't worry, we already have our victim!) Who knows what will happen when intrepid teens and loopy librarians try to figure out WHO KILLED
(oops - can't tell you who bites the dust - or the dust jacket - bad pun...)
Officer Fields stopped in the check on us; He said he'd send a squad car over....
The police will be here - will you??? Sign up at the libary!

Blogging 101

I attended the Blogging 101 class today at MLS so I'm going to try putting some of what I learned into practice! Watch for news and notes on this page and hopefully we'll be able to utilize technology to streamline some of we do, share news, etc.
