Musings from the Teen Department
Greetings, Teens!
Long time, no blog. It's difficult to believe but the Teen department is getting ready to kick off its 2013 Summer Reading Program! This year's theme is Beneath the Surface and there are some amazing activities planned.
We officially kick off Summer Reading on June 17th so make sure to come down and register and get your fill of candy from the Basket o' Deliciousness.
In the meantime, stop by the Teen department to check out the newest batch of Nutmeg Nominees. May as well get an early start on that summer reading!
See you soon,
Jodi

Upcoming Teen "Stuff"
Greetings, Teens - and Happy New Year!
We are only a few days into 2013 and I can already tell it's going to be a great year in the Teen department. Make sure to stop by next week for lots of fabulous things that will be happening.
1. I am getting a bunch of new books in - who doesn't love finding new things to read?
2. Monday (1/7) is Teen Movie Night. This is a drop-in event that begins at 5:30. Popcorn and delicious baked goods will be served. We'll be showing a newly released animation flick about a kid who sees ghosts - it's very Paranormal. (I just dropped a huge hint in there). If you still aren't sure and want to check on the title, call the YA desk at 860.584.7787 ext 2020.
3. Wednesday (1/9) is Teen Game Night. We are playing my most favorite game in the world - Apples to Apples. This program is drop-in and begins at 6 PM.
Lastly, I just want to let all of you know that there is an amazing program that you can sign up for. It's called Click! and it's a teen photography program. The Friends of the Library are funding this program that allows me, and some professional photographers, to teach you how to take and edit amazing photos. We'll be editing in Photoshop and taking on some crazy picture-taking scavenger hunts. However, space is limited for this event - which will run on Thursdays beginning 1/24 at 3:45 PM. If you want more info, you can pick up a flyer at the YA desk. Space is limited and registration is required. Participants must be able to come to all 8 sessions and have their own camera to use.
Hope to see you all soon!
