Teen Game Day

When I checked the registration book this morning we had more than 150 teens registered for summer reading.  School's been out less than one week and already kids are heading to the library to pick up books, music, and movies before heading out to friends, parties, vacation, wherever people head to when they don't have to head to school.


Remember this week at the library we have a Teen Game Day on Thursday, June 17 beginning at 3 p.m.  We'll have Guitar Hero up on the big screen and others games going on so stop by if you're around.  This Saturday, June 19 is our first of two Yo-yo Workshops with Jake Willis, president of the Lorain County Yo-yo Club.  Stop by at 1 p.m. Saturday and bring along your yo-yo or just come by and watch Jake as he demonstrates just what you can do with a little string.  No....this is not your father's yo-yo.  No old school yo-yo's here.

Magic Workshop with Ron Price takes place Monday, June 21.  Normally you'll find Ron at Yellow Barrel of Magic most Saturdays but on Monday he'll be teaching us how to perform some magic tricks with normal props you probably already have around the house.  Workshop is at 1:30 p.m. and for more room, we'll be down at the Main Street Center, 255 Park Avenue in downtown Amherst.  Yes, that's the old Amherst Post Office.

See you at the library!
