Rockland Public Library: Hunger Games Community Read Event March 13th

Rockland Public Library: Hunger Games Community Read Event March 13th
Editor: David Mills
Rockland, ME - At the public library at 6:30pm on the 13th of March will be a Hunger Games Read Event. Please come out to this event at the Rockland Public Library on Union Street in Rockland, Maine, if you have time.

To celebrate the release of the film adaptation of the novel this month, Oceanside High School East and YouthLinks have joined forces to host a community read, made possible with a Community Outreach grant from the Maine Humanities Council and a generous donation from Walmart. Oceanside East students in grades ten through twelve have volunteered to read the book together, play games, participate in challenges, and find out firsthand just what the Hunger Games hype is all about.

Community members of all ages – both those who have read the book already and those who have been meaning to but just haven’t gotten around to it yet – are encouraged to participate. Monday evenings at 6:30, adults and teens alike are invited to enjoy light refreshments while we discuss the book, have writing and art challenges, and compete for prizes. The weekly sessions will be hosted by Oceanside East’s very own Mary Ann Giasson and Jen Blood, local author of All the Blue-Eyed Angels and the Hyperink Press Hunger Games Quicklet & Study Guide.
