The Teen Volunteer Program that Friends of Smyrna Library established last summer has been a huge success! Over 20 teens actively volunteered and continue to do so. Their volunteer service made a big difference that directly translated into much needed service projects being completed along with a sizeable fundraising increase. THANK YOU.
For 2020 we want to grow the teen volunteer team! Please join us at Smyrna Public Library on Tuesday, November 26, 2019 at 5:30 pm in the downstairs meeting room to learn more and sign-up.
Note: 2019 experienced teen volunteers do not need to attend this meeting. You are already signed up. This meeting is for new teen volunteers.
Teen volunteer opportunities are available for 6th to 12th graders. Adult FOSL volunteers will supervise all events. Children who volunteer will be setup for success and get meaningful and well-organized community service assignments.
Some of the teen volunteer opportunities throughout the year in 2020 include:
• Sort and organize books for 14 “pop-up” sales in the library lobby.
• Sort and organize books for the Spring & Fall Jonquil Festival Book Sales and work the book sales.
• Organize books for 3 book sales at Keep Smyrna Beautiful’s Smyrna Outdoor Market and work the book sales.
• Help plan and work our younger kids “Fun-O-Rama” book sale and family fun event at Keep Smyrna Beautiful’s Smyrna Outdoor Market.
• Help setup/breakdown the First Sunday Lecture Series meeting room and take event photos for social media.
• More events are being planned and will soon be announced.
THANK YOU for supporting our wonderful Smyrna Public Library and engaging your children in high-impact community service!
