Calling all teens in the Galion area! Your local library needs your voice and your ideas. The Galion Public Library is hosting a Teen Advisory Board (T.A.B) meeting on Tuesday, September 17, at 5:00 PM, right before Teen Game Night. If you’ve ever wanted a say in what programs and events the library offers or have ideas for the next Summer’s Library Program, this is your chance to make a real impact.
Be the Change You Want to See
The Teen Advisory Board is not just a meeting; it’s an opportunity. Teens attending will help shape the library’s offerings for their peers. Whether it’s selecting the theme for next summer, choosing the prizes that everyone will be excited to win, or brainstorming new and creative programs, your input can transform the library experience for everyone.
One of the unique aspects of being a part of the T.A.B. is that you can contribute to the planning without missing out on the fun later. The library assures that attending the meeting and helping pick out prizes doesn’t disqualify you from participating in next year’s Summer Library Program. So, you get the best of both worlds—shaping the event and enjoying it!
Why Your Ideas Matter
Your library is a community hub that thrives on diverse ideas and perspectives. As a teen, your insights are invaluable because they directly reflect what you and your friends are interested in. The programs and themes developed by the T.A.B. can help make the library a more engaging place for you and your peers, ensuring that the library remains a relevant and exciting place for all ages.
Make a Difference and Earn Service Hours
In addition to shaping library programs, participating in the T.A.B. could also help you gain community service hours—something to keep in mind if you’re working toward service goals for school or other organizations. It’s a rewarding way to make a difference while building your resume or college applications.
Don’t Miss Out!
Join the conversation on September 17 at 5:00 PM and stay afterward for Teen Game Night, where you can unwind and have fun with friends. The Galion Public Library is eager to hear from you and make your ideas come to life.
Make sure to mark your calendar, bring your best ideas, and get ready to shape the future of your library.
