After Hours Teen Party
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to hang out in the library after it’s closed? Now’s your chance to find out!
On Friday, Aug. 23 from 6 to 10 p.m., eat snacks, earn prizes, and enjoy volleyball, water games, a photo booth, color wars, and more! White T-shirts will be provided for the color wars, but expect to get messy. Feel free to bring a change of clothes.
Registration is required. Register online here or call us at (586) 446-2640.
This epic event was planned by our Teen Advisory Board. For teens, by teens!
