This week in YA, what’s a teen to do?!

As we are, much too quickly, wrapping up our teen summer adventure events, we have two happenings for teens coming up.

Tuesday, August 2, at 4:30pm – Captain’s Logs on the Lawn
Captain’s, and ship’s, logs have a rich history, and provide insight into life on seafaring vessels.
Learn a bit about that history then create your own log so people will know “how you got there” when you become famous or maybe just for telling stories to your grandchildren. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Thursday, August 4, at 4:30pm in the downstairs Program Room – Rube Goldberg Experience
Special guests from RIMOSA will help you explore the connection between potential and kinetic energy by building your own roller coasters based on Rube Goldberg’s machines.
Participation is limited so please register.
