Events and Activities

Accepting Submissions Through Oct. 30

We are looking for creative souls of the Young Adult/Teen variety. Are YOU up to the Challenge?

We have a craft supply closet that needs clearing out AND a wall that badly needs ART. We will supply the 7 items, or you can supply 7 items.

Any reasonable basic form of unadorned craft item or recycled item is acceptable as one of the 7 (some examples: clothespin, fabric, pipe cleaners, plastic bottles, cardboard rolls etc.). In addition to your 7 items, you may use the following: glue, paste, staples, paper clips, scotch tape, markers, paint, pen or pencil, paper, and poster board.

Call ahead if you want to help clean out our closet and we will bag an assortment of 7 approved items. We will put your name on it for pick up.

Please share your art by photo with us! Name your art and list the 7 items. Photograph the completed work of art and send it to: mkiessling@mclinc.org.

Tuesdays at 4 PM

Join us via Zoom for trivia, games, activities, crafts, and chat. If you're interested in attending, please email Miss Marie at mkiessling@mclinc.org and she will get the Zoom meeting information to you.

Enter the maze at the top left hand square and escape to the bottom right by moving from square to square to spell out a phrase. You may move horizontally, vertically, and diagonally, but you can visit each square only once.

Oct. 7 Answer

Can you solve this riddle?

Two trains travel nonstop from Applesburg to Bananaville every day on the same track at the same speed. One train takes an hour and ten minutes and the other train takes 70 minutes. Why is that?

Answer: One hour and 10 minutes is equal to 70 minutes (60 min = 1 hour, 60 + 10 = 70). So they take the same amount of time.

No required reading or genres; just come to discuss the books you love, discover new titles, and share favorites with others. If you're interested in attending future events like this, please email Miss Marie at mkiessling@mclinc.org and she will get the Zoom meeting information to you.
