The second in a three-part Life Skills for Teens series on Money Matters takes place Thursday, Oct. 9 at Perry Memorial Library.
Participants will be assigned different roles to experience how job, education and family growth affect finances, and the library’s Youth Services Director Melody Peters said it’s like having a dose of reality before adulthood gets “real.”
The program is from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Got your first paycheck? Great! Now how much is left after you pay your bills – think rent, phone bill, car payment – the list seems endless. Teens get a chance to learn in a fun way the importance of financial literacy from Coastal Credit Union’s Wendy McCoy.
Then on Monday, Oct. 13, Varonica Mitchell, known by many as “VV” Mitchell, brings The VV Show to the library for a program called “Get Hype About Reading.” Come on out from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. and enjoy an Italian ice from Mac Scoops while sharing all the great things that come from reading.
The Fall Festival is just around the corner and the library staff is busy preparing for all the fun, including games, prizes and more! The festival is from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 21, with a special Trunk or Treat to follow from 5:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the library parking lot.
