We are going to make up for last week’s teen activity cancellation this week!
Not only will we be discussing Via Voros’s The Opposite of Geek, but we will also munch on some pizza while composing thoughtful letters to the White Pine nominated authors! Also, don’t forget about the inaugural meeting of Sarah’s Book Club, this Thursday, March 31st @ 4 p.m.
You’ll be able to select titles from a given genre and read something that appeals to you, but fits with the common theme! Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.
