The library hosted its annual end of summer party on August 28 at the Hopewell train station. The Party started with a performance by Picirillo Sciencetelling. The story “The Bugs of Blackwood (Matter)” used experiments with fire, gas, air pressure, water, chemicals, and more and the children on hand in the audience were brought right into the story.
After the show, pizza and ice cream were served. Two craft tables were provided with instructions and supplies to make a butterfly or walking spider.
The $100 Gift Certificate Grand Prize winner of the Hopewell Community Scavenger Hunt was chosen and children were awarded their reading challenge gift certificates. Approximately 100 children and parents attended the party and all had a great time.
A captive audience.
Another volunteer-Faith, what a great assistant.
Ready for the party!
