Tosho-Con 2010 Mascots

Here they are! For our Black and White theme, meet the 2010 Tosho-Con mascots. You'll have a chance to see them in person at the convention in March. We have a few surprises this year that we're excited about, so start getting your costumes ready!

Zombie Daze and our Teens

Braiiins!!! Almost 70 teen zombies took part in the Zombie Daze program held in the teen room on Wednesday. Some decorated zombie ducks, while others played "Pin the Liver on the Zombie". We had some great Library Survival Plans, a movie and some creepy snacks.

We've started planning for the 2010 Tosho-con Anime Convention. Our theme has been chosen and this year it will be Black and White. Mascots are being drawn, volunteers are applying, and events are being planned. If you want to be part of our convention this year, please fill out an application and hand it in as soon as possible. They can be found in the teen room. The meetings are every 3rd Tuesday of the month, from 5-7. You must be from 13-18 to volunteer, no exceptions.

Join us, and our special guest Steve Turner from Giving Tree Music on November 17th at 5pm in the Children's program room for this special drum program. Drumming is easy, and you'll get a chance to learn how. We'll get the chance to make a lot of noise and find our beat.

As part of Banned Book Week, we will be showing a Banned Book Movie Marathon on Friday, October 2nd from 10am - 4pm. The movies we chose we based on books that are or have been recently contested. This year, we will be showing Bridge to Terebithia, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Blood and Chocolate. Movies will be showing in the Teen Room movie room.

Braaaaaaiiinnnnsss!!!
