You heard right, Teen Advisory Board is not a group of performers pretending to awe you with their awesomness. This group of students want to make a difference, in their communities, homes and in their own lives.
And I know they will.
These teens love encouragement, (which teen doesn't?) need counsel, but sometimes don't know how to ask (who can relate to that?? As a former teen, me!!) and want to be heard
(point said...teens need to know someone is listening).
But, not only that, they are brimming full of ideas. I just have to ask and I get a room full of teens bursting at the seams to tell me their take and
how to make it happen.
And I love every minute of it.
If you are a teen and have time after school to spare or are a parent or aunt, uncle, grandmother/grandfather, neighbor, 1st cousin or whatever relation to a TEEN, please give them the wonderful advice of sitting in on a
Teen Advisory Board meeting.
It is every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month at 2:30 pm at the Mulberry Public Library, we will be here and teens will be too with their lights blinking on and off with questions, ideas, comments, and plain teen talk. Join us. You will love it.
There is only one thing to bring to the meeting!
Your light.

Teen Librarian/Assistant Director
