We had a chill night of games, snacks, and movies at our Beach Party Teen Night on July 25th. There was good company, great music, and a ton of games to play! Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy this celebration of our community's teens and the friendships they form at the library.

Special shout out to Bessie's Sweet Retreat for their donation of ice cream, Pizza Hut Amite for their donation of sweet teas, and Abby Kemp for her donation of drinks and chips! We truly couldn't hold these events without your support!
