Spring break and Boyce Ditto Public Library is ready with activities, for teens, 'tweens and younger kiddos, throughout the week. Here are this week's Library's offerings:
• Today, 5:30 p.m. – Open Mic Night for all ages. Do you have a talent in music, comedy or poetry? If so, come out and show what you've got! Perform or just come to watch all the talented people in your community.
• Wednesday, 1-4 p.m. – Teen Game Day. Teens, bring your gaming consoles, games and controllers for another game day at the library. Must be 13 or older to be admitted.
• Thursday (double-header): at noon – the Third Annual Teen Food Fear Factor. It's that time again to come watch participants “duke it out” for the title of “Food Fear Factor Champion.” If you are interested in participating in the game, please contact Chasity at (940) 328-7880. Only 10 participant spots are available. At 4 p.m – Saint Patty's Art Hour, designed for children ages 3 through 12. Join the library to create some St. Patty's Day art.
• Friday (another double-header): at 2 p.m. – Duct Tape Madness for all ages. Kids will make all kinds of awesome things, such as wallets, flowers and more, from this amazing tape. The library will have duct tape, while supplies last, but feel free to bring some duct tape from home. At 5 p.m. – “Rise of the Guardians” movie showing. No one under the age of 13 will be admitted without a parent or guardian present. Free admission and popcorn.
