Keeping Up With Kids


Thanks to Jenna for information about this super-cool voting project in Fall Creek!
Over the past few months, adults have been exercising their right to think and tomorrow they will have the chance to vote.
Over the past few weeks, Fall Creek youth have been able to make THEIR voices heard. We sent ballots home through school for all ages to vote on favorite Public Library programs, movies & books from 2012, kinds of pizza, things we should purchase for them to have access to in the Library, and more! 
Based on the voting results, next year, the Fall Creek Public Library will purchase backjack chairs, more LEGOs, and Wii attachments. If you would like to help our youth and the Library, your donations are always appreciated!

The two grades with the highest voter turn-out (percentage) will earn a Winter Break pizza and game night at the Library.
