Teens! Tired of pinky, sappy Valentine’s hearts, candy and cards? Want to do something different for February 14th this year? Join us for an Un-Valentine’s Day Program on Saturday, February 11th at 1 p.m.
We will:
- Decorate “broken heart” cookies
- Play the “Break My Heart” balloon game
- Pelt Cupid with beanbags
- Provide a list of positive alternate Valentine’s Day activities
And more!
The program is geared for teens ages 12 and older. Participants are asked to avoid wearing pink, red, or anything with hearts on it. There is no fee, but registration is required so we have enough supplies. Call the library at 797-4816 or see the Youth Services Librarian for more information or to register.
