Teen Murder Mystery

Hi everyone!
The teen murder mystery was a great success. We had 10 youth participate as characters and 36 youth were present. We had two winners that guessed correctly on who was the murderer. I would like to thank the teen advisory for their participation, the Haverford High School Radio program for their music, and everyone who attended. I hope that we can make all the teen programs just as fun and successful.
Sincerely,
Francis

Intro


Hi Everyone! My name is Francis Ames and I'm the new Teen Program Assistant. I'm really excited about working with teens and I'm part of a great team. I can't wait to hear about your thoughts and ideas about teen programming so be sure to join the Teen Chat & Chew on Sept. 25th at 3pm in the yellow room (Rotary Room). Just to tell you a little bit about myself. I have over 5 years of experience working with children and youth. I think working with teens is great because of their energy, they can express their ideas and have great input on teen activities. I enjoy a good joke, Disney movies, and watching the Eagles win games. I'm also a scrapbooker so watch out. I might take your picture! I hope to speak to you soon.

Teen Chat & Chew

Join us for free pizza and refreshments in the Yellow Room on Thurs., Sept. 25 at 3 pm! It’s your time to be heard. We want to hear middle and high school students’ thoughts about library services and programs. It’s your opportunity to meet other teens and share with staff about the types of activities or clubs that should be offered. You can even start your own club! For more information contact Francis Ames at 610-446-3082 ext. 207 or at htflteen@gmail.com.
