Community Novel!

- T.A.G. Presents -
A Community Novel

T.A.G. Invites all of Ketchikan to write a paragraph (or two) about Thomas, Jared and Enid - take them out of the laundromat, give them friends or loved ones, fun times or rough times and T.A.G. will put it all together to create a novel written by Ketchikan, AK!

--A Few Guidelines--
Though T.A.G. invites you to move our characters about and maybe even add a new one or two, we do have a few rules.
No gore, serious violence, death or profanity.
Consider this a very PG novel and it should all work out great.
And please make sure we can READ your paragraph!
If you hand write, please print carefully -
or come in and use the public library's typewriter or computer!


Paragraphs can be dropped off at the Schoenbar, Kayhi or the Campus libraries, or at the Public Library until October 11th.

T.A.G. will host a reading of the novel on October 17th at the UAS Ketchikan Campus Library.


Now it's up to Ketchikan!

Summer is Over




Yes, it's true not only Summer is over but also the first ever Teen Summer Program. 50 teens turned in over 250 comments this summer making it a great success! We are going to take everything we learned this summer and hopefully make the next program even better!

All the T.A.G. is back in school and working hard, but don't think school is the only plan for this fall - we will be at the KIC Ketchikan Activities Fair on Saturday from 1-3 at the Kayhi Commons, so look for us there!

And we will have new READ posters up soon along with our big fall program! Check back for more news soon!

P.S. Can you tell T.A.G. had a good time at the Teen Summer Program Party from the pictures?

Movie Night a Success!

T.A.G.'s Double Feature Friday was a success! Two dozen teens enjoyed the movies and the munchies provided by the Friends of the Library and co-sponsor, the Movie Gallery!! It was great having that many teens when there were other things going on in town.

Now T.A.G. is going to get ready for the finale of the Teen Summer Program - the PARTY! T.A.G. enjoyed a shopping adventure at Waldenbooks a co-sponsor of the program, with shopping funds provided by the Friends of the Library. Now they just have to put it all together and prep for the party!
