Teen Read Week, October 19-23

Kingsport Public Library will be participating in Teen Read Week, October
19-23, with activities for middle and high school students.  This year’s
theme is Read Beyond Reality @ Your Library.  The purpose of this
celebration is to encourage teens to read something out of this world just
for the fun of it.  The following activities are planned:

Thursday, October 22, 6:00  p.m. –  Middle and high school students are
invited to become detectives in an interactive murder mystery program.  This
will be an evening of fun, bard, and prizes.

Friday, October 23, 2:30 -4:00 p.m. – Middle and high school students are
invited to visit the Gaming Grotto in the library’s auditorium  for a free
gaming program  Play In Another Reality.

Monday thru Friday, October 19-23

Middle and high school students are encouraged to come by the
library each day and participate in a FANTASY CONTINUE THE STORY
notebook set up in the Teen area of the library.  Anyone who adds to
the story will get a small prize for each day they continue the story,
and their name will be added to an end-of-the-week drawing.  We will
also have a small prize for anyone checking out a Sci-Fi or Fantasy
book, and their name will be entered into the end of week drawing for a
larger prize.  Bibliographies of titles will be available in the teen
area.

PUMPKIN PARTY, Thursday, October 29, 4:00-5:30

The Kingsport Public Library will host a pumpkin party in the Mead
Auditorium.  Elementary-age children are invited to wear a costume and join
us for games, crafts, and snacks.
