Exciting Events at MCPL!

Hello!

We are almost halfway through the Summer Reading Club, and we have had some fun! Here are the highlights of the summer so far:


Chopped Cooking Contest 

This was a well-attended event with over 30 people! We had four teams compete for the highest scores on a beverage, on a pasta salad, and on a dessert. We also had three professional judges--two local chefs and a nutritionist--rank the teams. Everyone did such a great job!





Egg Drop 

This was an event that Miss Beth set up with the Middlebury Fire Department. Participants of all ages (including teens) packed uncooked eggs in a container. Then, the fire fighters collected the packages and dropped the eggs from a ladder. About half of the eggs dropped (we had over 40 participate) did not break.  This was a fun event to watch, and thank goodness, the weather held out.




Garden Pots and Pet Rock Painting 

We had twenty artists participate in this event. Participants chose pots and rocks to paint. We had a great time and I am happy to report that no paint spilled on the floor!





Thank you for reading! I will post more fun pics from our events this summer. :)
