December Teen Advisory Board Meeting

The HQ Teen Advisory Board met on Tuesday, December 5, and here's what they discussed:

The TAB agreed that the Halo tournament should be changed to a “Game Madness” program, due to complications in getting enough equipment together for Halo. We will still have Halo 1, but in addition, the DDR dancepads and game will be set up to run on the wide screen in the meeting room, and people will bring in other games such as Karaoke Revolution, American Idol, and various board games to have available on the side. Kathleen will revise the flier.

TAB decided to wait to vote on the final four titles for the literary magazine – finalists are Elemental Nocturne, Insane Flame, Feuer und Wasser, and Teen Zine. Amber brought some sample lettering for the cover. TAB felt that the best way to gather contributions would be for them to be emailed to the YA librarian so that they could be more easily put into Publisher format. For the next Tab meeting, Amber will do a sample flier soliciting contributions to the magazine.

Anime titles suggested for the Valentine’s Day program included Ah My Goddess, Supergals, Gankutsuou, Full Metal Panic Fumoku, Chobits, Gravitation, Princess Pretear and Hamtaro.

More suggestions for the lockin in August included serving Italian sodas and deviled ham and cheese sandwiches (thank you, Amy!). Activities could include showing High School Musical and Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, as well as a dance contest (non-DDR), karaoke, Twister and SceneIt.

Future programs were suggested including a Tekken tournament later in the year, a Sims party, and a mother/daughter spa program for Mother’s Day.

TAB members felt we should have another meeting before the Game Madness program to finalize arrangements. The next meeting is therefore scheduled for January 9 at 6:30 pm (instead of 7:00).
