Teen Advisory Board working meeting 9/19/2016

Present: Frissel, Laura, Madison, McKenna, Lucy, Lauren, Kara, Liliana, Maya

Announcements:

  • Oct. 10 at 7pm: We (the Library and the Teen Advisory Board) will take the anti-bullying proclamation at the City Council Meeting.  If you are available to attend to show your support, please let me know.  Wear your TAB shirts.
  • Oct. 11 at 6-9pm: The City is celebrating National Coming Out Day.  We’re working with the Public Health Dept. to put on this event.  I need TAB members to staff our Library information booth and pass out info about our Mental Health Initiative and resources for LGBTQ.  I’ll be coordinating most of the onsite logistics.  Please let me know if want to help out, and again, please wear your shirts.

Murder Mystery:  Very productive meeting.  I’ll work on gathering everyone’s notes together and put them on one document.  Here’s our work plan for the next month:

Decorations – Please make time to come in weekly to work on the decorations.  This means that you have 5 meetings to finish these.  If you need more time, please talk to the others to see if there’s another time you can meet.

Script – Laura, please connect with Haneen and Hadley.  The victim is the Prince of Hearts.  Please try your best to have finished scripts back to me by October 10.

Weapon clues – Liliana and Kara came up with some fun weapons; I’ll order everything today.  Liliana, please connect with KC and Brittany to let them know the plans.  You all still need to work on the clues.  You can work independently via email and Google docs, but you must share all of that with me and your progress.  In order to get all the pieces prepared on time, the clues need to be done by October 5.  The clues need to be tested, so Oct 8 at our TAB meeting would be the best time to do that, but they have to be finished by Oct 5.  I need a couple of days to get supplies so we can test it.  Otherwise,  you may schedule a time between the three of you to come into the library and work on it together.

Location clues – Lauren and Madison, same as above (weapon clues).  Please have them done by October 5.

Characters/actors – Those who volunteered to be a cast member, please make sure you can absolutely be here on October 28.  The event takes place from 5:30-8pm, but I’m asking volunteers to arrive earlier if possible.  I would also like to take some cast pictures, so I’m hoping you’ll be ready and dressed by 5:15.

  • Alice– Bella
  • Cheshire Cat – McKenna
  • White Rabbit – Maya
  • Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum – Madison and Lauren
