Meeting Notes

At our December 20 meeting we discussed developing a TAB mission statement. We read some examples of other Teen group's mission statements. Members suggested that the following be included: encourage reading and library usage, advise on material selection, promote volunteering, and create fun-filled programs for children and families.

We discussed upcoming TAB sponsored programs. On Tuesday, 2/12 from 4:30 to 5:15 we will be holding a Valentine's Day Jewelry Craft. If anyone is interested in helping out, please let Mrs. Reinhart know. Our annual readers' theatre presentation of Tim O'Toole and the Wee Folk will be held on Wednesday, 3/12 from 4:30 to 5:15. In April we will be holding a "Camp Out" that will involve younger children listening to stories, eating s'mores, singing, etc.

We decided that during our January meeting we will play Disney Scene It or a similar game and have cake for Julia's birthday which falls on the meeting date-1/17.

Future teen program ideas include: Guitar Hero competition, DDR, Smash Bros, cake decorating, movie marathon, sushi fest, carnival day, Cinco de Mayo party, origami and henna.

Next year the library will be receiving a $1,000 donation for YA books and would like suggestions from TAB members as to what to purchase. Some TAB members would like to meet at Barnes and Noble to investigate titles.

Our next TAB meeting will be held on 1/17 at 7-8.
