Exciting Raffle Basket News!

The winners have been notified and the money has been tallied! SPLAT would like to thank everyone who bought tickets into the annual Fall basket raffle, and to those who helped put the baskets together through various donations. 100% of the money raised goes to teen programs and teen materials in the library.

The total raised, drum roll please.....
$1,031.00

Way to go! That money will go a long way in helping the teen department at the SPL!
Look for more baskets to be unveiled this coming spring! If you have any ideas or would like to donate a basket, please e-mail me, Dan Barbour, at dbarbour@cwmars.org.

Peace!

Best Teen Chef is BACK!!!


COME TO THE LIBRARY TO REGISTER BEFORE SPACE RUNS OUT!!!



This event was a huge hit last year, so we're doing it again! The next installment of the popular event will feature the same rules, but new ingredients! Teams of two people - one of which must be a Shrewsbury resident, and both of which must be in grades 5-12, must register for their chance at taking home the mystery grand prize. PLEASE NOTE: Due to limited space, not all teams of two will get the chance to participate. We will do a random drawing at the beginning of the night to determine which teams will compete. Only teams that are preregistered will get the opportunity to be in this drawing. Everyone else will get to watch in the audience, as well as try and win a small prize in our food trivia game. Adults, friends, and family members are encouraged to be in the audience.

Great News!

I have some great news! The Shrewsbury Public Library was recently awarded a grant from the Central Massachusetts Regional Library System!! With the funds that they are providing, we will be able to get some gaming equipment for trivia competitions, as well as a new video camera to film the events! Thank you so much CMRLS!
