Library's TeenSpace Leadership Hosts Guitar Hero World Tour

Do you know a teen more likely to hang at the library than at the mall? How about a young leader looking for a volunteer project? TeenSpace might be just the place for them.

Once a month, the Racine Public Library, invites teens ages 11-17 to gather and share food, plan teen programs and activities, work on creative projects, plan leadership/volunteer activities, and generally hang out with other teens with some of the same interests.

TeenSpace Leadership's next activity day is Saturday, Feb. 21. The group is hosting a day of video gaming from 1:30-3:30 p.m. in the Martin Room just off of the Youth Services dept. The featured game for the day will be Guitar Hero World Tour. If you know a teen that might be interested, please spread the word!

No registration is necessary for the event. Game play is available on a first come, first serve basis. Call Becky at 262-619-2571 for more information.

TeenSpace Leadership members have been meeting twice monthly to plan the Teen Tech Week Lock-in and Gaming night being held on March 6 from 5-11 p.m. (contact Becky at 262.619.2571 for info) and will be integral to designing a new teen area during planned remodeling in the fall/winter of 2009. TeenSpace leadership also has a voice in teen material selection and program planning.
