Snakes Alive!

2016 UPDATE:  The library's Boys' Adventure Club has been discontinued.  We're leaving this post online to keep a historical record of one of the library's many programs over the years.


Our Youth Services Department offers lots of interesting programs and activities.  One is the Boys' Adventure Club, which is open to boy-type students in grades K-6.  There are lots of exciting adventures, as our program trailer below reveals:


(I know the program trailer is a bit dated, but, hey, it shows what fun they're having!)

Coming January 31, 2011, from 4-5 p.m., BAC will be featuring snakes!  (I call them slitherdarts.)  Some people are afraid of snakes, like the Lady With the Red Hair, but as for me, I usually equate snakes with in-between meal snacks.  But now that I don't have to catch my din-dins (human caregivers can be useful), I prefer to think of snakes as curious little fast fellas that are really fun to chase in the tall summer grass.  But snakes are truly useful critters.  They catch nasty bugs and keep rats and mice from overrunning granaries and other food stores.  Hey, they're a lot like cats!  Guess we're brothers and sisters, then, all working together as big-time predators.  Quite a special club, I'd venture.

Don't forget, all you boy-people in grades kindergarten to six:  Boys' Adventure Club, January 31, 2011, from 4-5 p.m.  Registration is required, so visit our web site and click the "calendar" link (to register online) or call (317) 831-7323 and ask for the Youth Services Desk.  Snakes are cool.  Don't miss this adventure, and more exciting ones to come throughout the year!


Adventurously Yours,

P.S.  If you like adventure and prehistoric creatures, try The Lost World, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes.  It is an adventure tale par excellence, as our book trailer below reveals.
