Pics of the ultimate bookworm that wiggled through the El Reno Christmas parade last week are up on flickr!  Thanks to all of the legs who wormed their way into the project! 

TAB party!

Clear your calendars!  Teen Advisory Board is having a Holiday Get-Together!

When?  Thursday, Dec. 20 from 5-6 pm

Why?  Do we need an excuse to eat and be merry?  No.  However, we have at least one bit of business to discuss - we need to pick a new meeting time for 2008! 

As always, TAB is open to El Reno-ites and Canadian County-ers in grades 6-12.  Bring a friend! 

 Questions?  Contact Kate at kshaklee@elreno.lib.ok.us OR call 405-262-2409.  :)

Help!!

We need more people to be in the giant bookworm!  The parade is THIS THURSDAY!!  We’ll meet at the library at 5 pm.  The parade starts at 6 pm.  It should end about 6:45 pm.   Please email Kate (kshaklee@elreno.lib.ok.us) or call her (262-2409) and volunteer to be in the worm!!

Just an FYI - the “teen page” on our website (www.elreno.lib.ok.us) has been done away with.  If you click the “Young Adult” link, you’ll come straight to this blog.  :) 

Waddaya think about that??

Gocks…sorta

We created some weird sock puppets yesterday at “Gocks:  The Goth Sock Puppet Experiment.”  I don’t know how goth they were…but they were certainly strange and wonderful!
