May Teen Advisory Board Meetings
The Teen Advisory Board (TAB) helps the library determine all the great programs it should put on for the 11-18 crowd. TAB members earn community service hours just by attending meetings and offering their thoughts and opinions. Plus, members get to be the first to know about all the other volunteer opportunities available in the library. The Friends of the Library provide free snacks and drinks, so come hungry and be ready to have your voice heard! We usually have fun activities following the meetings (like art contests, talent shows, gaming nights etc.). TAB is for grades 6 - 12.
Upcoming TAB meetings @ New River Library:
May 5th at 6:00pm - Anime Club starts after the meeting.
May 19th at 6:00pm - Gaming Night starts after the meeting.
