Smash Bros Tournament and Nintendo Night

Last Friday we had 19 teens show up to Nintendo Night where we played retro Nintendo consoles and competed in a Super Smash Bros for Wii U tournament. We did four rounds of preliminary matches before going into single elimination for the top 8 players of the preliminaries. And while cousins Brian and Phillip usually get pretty far in the finals, this was the first time that the ended up both fighting for first, making for a pretty exciting final match!

While I'm not sure we'll have another Smash Bros tournament before the Summer, we have Mario Kart 8 tournaments coming up in March at both Primos (on Saturday March 19) and Municipal (on Tuesday March 15) branch libraries. Big thanks to everyone for coming out Friday night for Nintendo Night!

Anime Club and Nintendo Night this week!

Tomorrow is Anime Club at Sellers Library, and we'll be watching the very entertaining and very weird Assassination Classroom! It's at 3:30 and open to all teens in grades 6-12, so stop on by!

Yesterday we had 7 teens come out in the rain to make stuff out of Perler Beads. There was a good mix of people that made stuff from patterns, people that used patterns but changed some stuff up, and others that made stuff completely freehand! Thanks to everyone that braved the weather! Someone asked when the next one will be, so I'll try and have an answer to that soon!

Here's some of the awesome results of yesterday's Perler Bead craft! Thanks to everyone that came! #perlerbeads #library

The Summer I Found You by Jolene Perry

The book The summer I found you was an amazing book. I love the plot and characters, but the thing I love most was how both Kate and Aiden one having lost an arm and the other having type 1 diabetes both connected on a level where they can form a relationship.  Both put their past behind and not let it get in the was of there future. They may have had a rocky beginning, but a beautiful ending for their relationship.
