Fox Library Community Room

Kids learn to recognize the amount of sugar in sodas, sports drinks and other sweetened beverages and are encouraged to make healthy drink choices. At the end of the program the kids will make a parfait that avoids any of the common allergens. We'll use coconut "milk" yogurt, wheat free/nut free granola and fruits. When you drop off your child please sign them in and indicate any allergies or that they are allergy free. Without this information and your signature, we will be unable to have them participate.
This program is made possible by the generosity of Mary Landale from Whole Foods Market Medford

Buffy Musical Sing Along at the Robbins
Thursday, May 17th, 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM. Community Room. Teens, come sing along to the Buffy season 6 episode 7 "Once More, with Feeling". Sunnydale is alive with the sound of music as a mysterious force causes everyone in town to burst into full musical numbers, revealing their innermost secrets as they do. But some townsfolk are dancing so much that they simply burst into flames, and it becomes clear that maybe living in a musical isn't so great after all. Lyrics will be provided for those who may need them.
Copies of "Enclave", June's Teens Only Book Selection are available in the Teen area now!
COMING UP in JUNE................
Calling all Teen Fashionistas!
Wed. June 13th 4:00-6:00 PM
The Fox Library is holding a Summer Preview Fashion Show for the Fashion at the Fox clothing sale. Be both fashion designer and model by picking out the outfits you'll strut down the runway during our 30 minute fashion preview. Talula Christian, local artist, costume designer and fashion photographer will be there to mentor the process and give fashion advice.
If you are interested in fashion, but would rather work behind the scenes, we will need teens to help run the show and would love a volunteer to announce our models as they walk the runway.
