Teen Summer Program
Game On! TTR.08
Welcome to Game On! TTR.08 the teen summer program at GPL. June and July are chock-full of fun programs focused on playing and gaming. Game On! is open to teens ages 12-18 and is easy to do. Click on the link below to register or stop in at the library.
Take part in the program to win prizes. Everyone who completes the program has the chance to win a $25 gift certificate to Best Buy or Target and is invited to the Wrap Up Pool Party. Complete the program by reading for 10 hours over the months of June and July. Or attend events for reading credit. Attending 1 event = 1 hour of reading. Or mix and match. Read some and attend some events until you reach 10 hours. Write and post at least one review on something you have read. Reading material can include books, magazines, websites, graphic novels, and manga. And the best part is that it is all FREE.
