Teens will Exchange White Elephant Gifts

Teen patrons – ages 12-18 – will have a White Elephant gift exchange Saturday, Dec. 15, 4-6 p.m., in the Community Room.
Participants are asked to bring a silly or serious wrapped gift worth about $5. The item can be new or used. Teens will be playing the classic White Elephant gift exchange game with them, where gifts can be swapped and stolen, as the rules allow. (Some gifts will be provided, in case the purchase of a gift is an obstacle to attendance.)
Time permitting, there will also be a sockball fight. Cocoa and popcorn will be provided. No one will go home empty-handed, but you might laugh at what you get.
On Friday, Dec. 28, at 6 p.m., in the Community Room there will be a free screening for teens of the holiday movie, “Elf” (PG), starring Will Ferrell as Buddy the Elf. Pizza will also be provided.
