Teen volunteers are needed to create giant puppet characters for the library. These fanciful creations will be used in parades and for public display. Bring your ideas, large and small. We’ll provide materials and assistance to bring these fantastic characters to life. If you’re able, walk in the holiday parade with your creation along with the library book cart drill team on November 22. Volunteer for your community at your library! This is a part of the library’s new VOLaTiLE program: VOLunteer Teens in Library Environments.
