Teens to be Locked in Library?

Thanks to the efforts of the Booth and Dimock Library and Coventry Youth Services, patrons in grades 9-12 will be able to participate in a Library Lock-In on Friday, December 30th.  Among the varied entertainment planned for the evening is a bout of Laser Tag, sure to be a match for the ages.  The lock-in will go from 5:45pm until 10pm, and all high school age patrons are welcome, as long as return a valid permission slip The forms are available at the Teen Zone desk and at Coventry Human Services.  Registration runs from December 13th to the 27th.

When asked about the event, library patron Cindy Curmudgeon, age 79, commented, “It’s about time those unruly teenagers got locked up!”  We attempted to explain that the event was for fun, not punishment, but unfortunately Ms. Curmudgeon’s hearing aid battery died.   Travis Feder, Teen Services Assistant, remarked that he was looking forward to the event and hoped that the weather would be good. 

For more information about the event, speak to Kristi or Travis at the Teen Services desk, or call the library at (860) 742-7606, You can contact Youth Services at (860) 742-5324.
