December YAC Meeting

The next YAC meeting is on Wednesday, December 17th at 4:30pm. We'll be celebrating the holidays by making gingerbread houses!

For those who don't know, YAC is the library's Youth Advisory Committee! Teens volunteer for events in the library and the larger community and have fun while doing so! It's a friendly group, and new members (in grade 6 and up) are always welcome.

For more information, contact Heather Colby at (708) 301-7908 or hcolby@homerlibrary.org.

Mitten Drive!

The Youth Advisory Committee is sponsoring a Mitten Drive at the library! We are accepting new gloves, mittens, hats, and scarves (and gently used winter coats) for men, women, teens, and children. Items can be dropped off at the library during the entire month of December. All items will be donated to a local shelter. Thank you for your support!

(And thank you to our fabulous YAC members who planned & promoted the Mitten Drive! If you're a teen in grades 6-12 and interested in joining the Youth Advisory Committee, contact Heather Colby at (708) 301-7908 or hcolby@homerlibrary.org for more information!)
