April Events for Teens at Wood Library

Teen Nite
Thursday, April 12 7-8 PM

Problem: You're on Spring Break with nothing to do.
Solution: Come to Wood Library's Teen Nite!

On Thursday, April 12 from 7 to 8 PM, hang out with friends while you play Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero II, Twister, poker, or Skip Bo! After that, jump on a laptop and surf the web. Then treat yourself to some snacks and hot and cold drinks. The entire night is planned for you and all you have to do is show up! For more information, contact Jenny Goodemote at jgoodemote@pls-net.org or 585-394-1381.
