Countdown to the House Party!

September 3, 2009

The Helen C. House Party is less than a week away! Please make plans to join us for an evening of games, food, and fun, on Thursday, September 10, from 7-11 p.m. There will be a Texas hold ’em poker tournament with space for 100 people to vie for the grand prize (a reserved table of one’s choice at the library – designated hours, all semester long). Other fun activities include:

  • Ninja tag (winning team members get a coupon for one free poster printing)
  • Bibliodefenders, an augmented reality game played with iPhones (provided)
  • video gaming (PS3 “Beatles Rock Band,” XBox 360 “NCAA 2010,” Wii “Mario Kart” and “Boom Blox“)
  • free food (pizza, subs, tacos, popcorn, Pepsi products, etc.)
  • music (WSUM and a 2nd floor dance party)
  • a movie (Iron Man in Room 3191)
  • arts-n-crafts (design your own tote bag, friendship bracelets, origami)
  • balloon animals
  • pick-a-duck game
  • palm readings
  • cotton candy
  • door prizes,
  • and, much, much more!

Don’t miss all of the fun. This is your chance to see a library like never before. But, rest assured, amid all of the action, library staff will still be on hand to check out books, equipment, and provide research help. Check out our Web site for more details.
