Bring it and yourself! We’ll also have an activity or two planned.

TAB MEETING

CHECK IT OUT TEENS

Wednesday, February 19th 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

This is our monthly TAB meeting. Everyone in

grades 6-12 who has an interest in teen ma-

terials collection, programs, and activities of-

fered for teens and “tweens” should consider

being part of the Teen Advisory Board of

the Danville Public Library. We are always

looking for new members! All of our meet-

ings are open to everyone in grades 6-12.

We do fun activities at most meetings, plan

future programs and activities, develop and

refine our teen volunteer program, and par-

ticipate in community service activities in ad-

dition to helping with other programs of-

fered at the Danville Public Library. Mem-

bers are not expected to attend every meet-

ing or every event. Once on the board, you

will receive monthly information from our

meetings even if you are not able to attend.

It is my hope that we would develop a large

enough group to have at least 8-10

(hopefully more) members at each meeting

and 20 (hopefully more) members on the

board. Serving on this board looks great on

college applications and job applications.

Those students who participate regularly in

TAB, for 6 months or more, can request per-

sonal letters of recommendation from Kris.

Please feel free to bring friends with you to

meetings. For more information, call or email.

EXPLORING ALL THE

AFTER HIGH SCHOOL

GRADUATION

Please join us to explore ALL of the options you

have available to you for the year after

graduating from high school. Of course,

path for some students but there are all kinds

of choices open to graduating seniors. Please

join us to learn about all types of colleges,

trade schools, and other choices including

joining the armed forces or taking a GAP year.

Some students choose to take a planned year

off before starting college or joining the

workforce. We will have speakers with non-

traditional education and career paths. All high

school students and their families are invited.

AUTHOR VISIT PHILIP RIGDON Wednesday, February 12, 2014 From 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

Author Rev. Philip Rigdon from Avon,

Indiana is here to discuss his new

fantasy book Under the Bridge to the

Seeds of Light. This book is written

for middle and high school age

students but everyone is welcome to

attend. Please join us.

Philip Rigdon is a pastor and teacher. He has lived and ministered in Mexico and the Republic of China, teaching in Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. His teaching experience in the United States includes junior high social studies and adult education. He and his wife, Jamelyn live in Avon, Indiana, with their pet chinchilla, Sunshine. Philip currently serves as pastor of Our Shepherd Lutheran Church and School in Avon, Indiana.

REGISTRATION IS REQUESTED BUT NOT REQUIRED

Someone or something under the bridge took Douglas Jenski. Weeks after his disappearance, neither his family nor the police can find him. Now, without a plan and unsure of what they will find, Rick, his sister Edie, and friends Simo'n, Ahn, and Ox venture under the bridge after their missing friend. In Under the Bridge to the Seeds of Light the young friends discover a place much like home, and yet completely different at its essence. The five must evade capture by the Rayaim—dark, hooded creatures with the power to draw the very life-light from their victims. They are puzzled by the mysterious Mr. Warner, a solitary, blues-playing neighbor who offers some answers, but just as many questions. In the search, each friend will learn more about themselves and what they are truly capable of, which turns out to be more than they could have ever imagined! When the rest of the group is crushed and dispirited, will one friend find the strength to do what is necessary to prevent certain doom?

THURSDAY FEBRUARY 13, 2014 FROM 4:30-6:00

Love can stink! Okay, now that I have your attention! This celebration isn't totally anti-valentine's day (although we do deface some romance book cover art and we will have fun decorating some broken brokenhearted cookies), it is more a celebration of the individual. Whether or not you have a significant other, please join us for this event. We will play games, do some crafts, listen to music, have treats and just celebrate the individual in all of us. The program is for students in grades 6-12, please register.

Love Stinks: ANTI-VALENTINE’S DAY PROGRAM

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27TH 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

This is our monthly Anime and Manga club for 6-12 grade students. Registration is requested but not required. We take turns bringing in anime to watch. We do crafts, have snacks, play games. Every month it is something a little different; please join us.

(DRESSING UP IS OPTIONAL)

Youth Services of Danville-Center Township Public Library will be hosting a "Teen Late Night" at the library on Friday, January 24h, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. to break up the January “blahs”. Teens should plan to arrive at 6:00 to sign in and get started on some games. The library will provide some snacks but we would like the teens to each bring a favorite dessert to share with the group. Please eat dinner at home before you come to the library. We plan on playing video games, making crafts, playing board or card games, listening to music, and enjoying large group activities like werewolf, the cup game, and hide and go seek and much more. This program is for students in grades 6-12, and we require a permission slip signed by the parent or guardian with a Danville Library employee as a witness. Checking out library books will not be allowed at this time. We require that parents deliver and pick up their children. Children will not be allowed to walk home. The program will end at 10:00pm. If a child has not been picked up by 10:20pm, library policy requires we notify the police. If someone other than a parent will be picking up a child, we must have their name in advance and we must see picture identification. Please, Please register for this event; I need to know how much food and other items to purchase.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the

Danville Public Library’s very own Minecraft

server! Join us on February 18th from 6:30 PM to

7:30 PM for our kick off party. Come in and

have some cake, win some prizes, and of

course play Minecraft! This is just the beginning

of our programming using Minecraft so stay

tuned to find out more information.

Miguel De Cervantes

Alan Brennert

Rachel Kalama, a spirited seven-

year-old Hawaiian girl, dreams of vis-

iting far-off lands like her father, a

merchant seaman. Then one day a

rose-colored mark appears on her

skin, and those dreams are stolen

from her. Taken from her home and

family, Rachel is sent to Kalaupapa,

the quarantined leprosy settlement

on the island of Moloka'i. Here her

life is supposed to end---but instead

she discovers it is only just beginning.

With a vibrant cast of vividly realized

characters, Moloka'i is the true-to-life

chronicle of a people who em-

braced life in the face of death.

Such is the warmth, humor, and

compassion of this novel that "few

readers will remain unchanged by

Rachel's story" (mostlyfiction.com).

Don Quixote has become so en-

tranced reading tales of chivalry

that he decides to turn knight errant

himself. In the company of his faith-

ful squire, Sancho Panza, these ex-

ploits blossom in all sorts of wonderful

ways. While Quixote's fancy often

leads him astray—he tilts at wind-

mills, imagining them to be giants—

Sancho acquires cunning and a cer-

tain sagacity. Sane madman and

wise fool, they roam the world to-

gether-and together they have

haunted readers' imaginations for

nearly four hundred years.

DPL ARTIST OF THE MONTH Ron Shimanek

I grew up in Wisconsin and have a background in electrical

engineering and quality science (BSEE from the University of

Wisconsin and MSEE from Purdue University). After graduating from

the UW, I began my design engineering career in 1968 at Delco

Radio ( which became Delco Electronics and then Delphi Automotive

Systems) in Kokomo, Indiana. In 1980, I moved to Singapore as part

of a five person team to start an engineering and manufacturing

subsidiary of Delco Electronics. I lived in Singapore for nearly five

years and then returned to Kokomo as the Director of Quality

Systems. I retired in 2000 and moved to Danville in 2003.

I started taking photos when I was eight years old using simple

cameras; I began using a twin lens reflex and a 35 mm camera in

high school when I was the newspaper and yearbook

photographer. At this time, I had my own darkroom and developed

all of my own negatives, slides and prints. After graduation from

college, I continued to pursue my photographic hobby using various

35mm cameras. In Singapore, I took advantage of the great

camera prices to acquire a lot of photographic equipment and to

take thousands of pictures and slides of the Singapore experience. I

moved strictly to the digital format in the late 1990’s.

My peak photographic output occurred when I lived in Singapore

and traveled throughout Europe, Asia, New Zealand and

Australia. During that time, I traveled to more than 30 countries and

the newness of each experience made for many great photographic

opportunities.

GENEALOGY NUTS

MONTHLY MEETING

Monday, February 10th

1:30 PM Program Room

This month we will continue to learn about Midwestern archives and libraries. We explored six libraries in Illinois at our January meeting. There are many well-known libraries and archives in our area that researchers should investigate before they say “nothing more can be found on my families.” The websites give a window into their collections and a trip to the “brick-and-mortar” buildings will provide more information. Midwesterners are not afraid of a drive to a library. Many of these

libraries are less than a day’s drive away. In some cases, the drive is only a few hours.

We will explore some of the unique features of these libraries at our meeting. Come and enjoy learning about some new resources that might answer questions about our troublesome ancestors. We all have ancestors who seemed to make sure they left as few tracks as possible.

If you are a new resident in the area, come join our group. We are quite willing to try to help you with your research. Someone in our group may be researching the same families you are researching. At our meetings, people have met family members they did not know existed.

Membership Research Help

Members of the Wa-Pe-Ke-Way chapter

of the DAR will be available in the

Indiana Room to help potential

members with their family research on

Saturday, March 29 from 9:00 AM to

1:00 PM. They will answer questions

and assist with the research needed to

become a DAR member. This help is one

–on-one. You will be guided through the

DAR Internet site for help with your

research if you already have a family

member in the DAR or think you have a

family member in the organization.

Gentlemen are also welcome as the

research will help you join the SAR. If

you would like more information, please

contact Rose Ann in the Indiana Room

as she is a member of the DAR. Rose

Ann can help you with your research if

this date is not convenient for you.

the 1800’s. You get to see original old documents, such as this letterhead from a

Pittsboro newspaper in 1893.

+ COME AT YOUR CONVENIENCE—10 AM TO 4 PM

Stay for as little or long as you like. Lunch is on your own.

+ WANT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROJECT?

Do you want to start tracing your family roots?

Do you know what to do with a family group sheet? Do you know how to fill out a

pedigree chart? Have you heard of these forms? Our workshop will introduce

you to these basic forms in genealogy research and get you started with your

family research. This is a very addictive hobby.

You will learn how to begin the research process at the Danville Public Library. In

the spring, we will be offering a workshop for beginners. Please contact the

Indiana Room to have your name placed on the list of interested persons. The

date for the workshop has not been set but we can tell you that the workshop will

be on a Saturday morning in April or May. We want to be past the possibility of

snow and a cancellation of the workshop due to weather.

We need to know if we have people interested in attending a workshop for

beginning genealogists.
