Hi Teens! Just a reminder about your reading logs! If you're logging through Beanstack, you have until midnight on July 20th to get in your minutes. Paper reading logs are due to the library on the 20th.
PLEASE CHECK YOUR LOGS. Remember, we have guidelines! Your books must be from Sims, OR it must be a book that Sims currently carries. And, no book repeating! Once you are done with a title and have logged your minutes, you cannot count the book again.
Thank you for making summer reading a fun adventure!

Hey Teens! Come game with us this Thursday, 7/18 (not the 17th like the graphic says lol)....We have our Nintendo Switch on the big screen, AND you can also bring your own devices or play games on our PCs. Or, just come hang out! See you at 4 PM in the Lair on Thursday!

Look what's coming soon....👀

Hey Teens! It's Movie Matinee this week! Come hang out and we'll choose a movie to watch. There might be some snacks involved, too. :P Hope to see you Thursday at 4 PM!

Happy July 4th y'all! Be careful with those fireworks! 😉

Hey Tweens and Teens! So, some good news and some bad news....
The bad news is that our annual Arcade Party is not going to happen, due to The Arcade permanently closing after July 13th.
The GOOD news is that we're working on something else! It may not happen on July 24th as scheduled, but we'll let you all know in plenty of time.
Stay tuned!

July's Calendar is Here! 🎊
Don't forget that we're closed on the 4th...but come hang out on the 3rd for a Karaoke party! Come sing or just have fun!
And get those minutes in! Last day to log books into Beanstack is by midnight on 7/20, or paper logs get turned in on 7/20.

Water Wars is TODAY, y'all! It is HOT, but with our big beautiful trees and plenty of ways to stay cool, I think we'll be okay! Don't forget to wear clothes that you don't mind getting wet in (swimsuits are fine), waterproof shoes, a towel, and sunscreen! Registration is still open, and we have plenty of room, so come join us out on the front lawn at 4:30. Get set, get wet! 🔫🎈

Hey Teens! Registration opens up today for Water Wars, which is next Thursday the 27th! This will help me be better prepared to have everything that you need. Read the photo above so you'll be prepared for some fun times! I will have a few blasters and squirters, but feel free to bring your own!

Happy Juneteenth! Did you know that Juneteenth's origins were in Galveston?
The library is closed today, but we'll be open tomorrow, 10A-7P.
