Murder, Mayhem & Mystery…
Posted: 01/08/2013 by Calvert Library in Events, TACOSTags: library, murder mystery, teen events
Whodunit? Help solve this Chi-town murder mystery, fedoras and flappers or any other 1920’s attire welcome. Light snacks provided. See you on the January 16th… unless you’re hiding something… Registration Requested
So last month we were inspired by the Day of the Dead with Sugar Skull decorating. This month you won’t want to miss our nod to the Night of the Living Dead. Bring your friends, test your survival skills and join the hunt… not for zombies- the survival scavenger hunt. Be there or you’re on your own… Registration is recommended
4 Reasons Why You Must Attend Locos Tacos on October 17

Hola! ¿Cómo va todo? (which means “How’s it going?”, at least according to Google Translate)
What’s going on with us, you ask back? (In English or Spanish, we understand both). Thanks for asking! As it turns out, we’re planning a super great get-to-know-you-while-eating-tacos party here at the library. For teens! Yes, for you!
On the line-up for the evening is:
- A taco bar. Seriously. A taco bar. Do you even need to keep reading?
- Sugar skull decorating! (Guess you’re glad you kept reading!)
- Traditional Mexican music. Like . . . the Macarena? (Ok, maybe not. Or maybe?)
- Your chance to meet our awesome TACOS librarian coordinator and a bunch of friends you haven’t met yet!
So who are the TACOS and why do they eat tacos? Well, the TACOS, or Teen Advisory Council of Students, are a great group of high school students from around Calvert County who help us coordinate teen services and events. In other words, they make sure we don’t slack off. 🙂
Want to meet them? And eat tacos? And make a sugar skull and dance the night away? Then join us!
Va a ser muy divertido!

Want to brush up on your Victorian-era etiquette, accent or attire? Here are a few bits of trivia to get you started:
“A lady or gentleman should finish their toilet before entering the room for dancing, as it is indecorous in either to be drawing on their gloves, or brushing their hair. Finish your toilet in the dressing rooms.” (via The Victorian Web)
London wasn’t all that filthy – it only suffered from cholera in 1832. And in 1848. And 1853. Oh, and also 1866. Hey, wait a minute . . . (via The Victorian Web)
Did you know that the Victorians used to have more fun than we do? They had this great party game, “The Laughing Game.” One person began by saying, “Ha”; the next, “Ha-ha”; and so on around, while all tried not to actually laugh. Whoever succumbed was eliminated as the “Ha” repetitions continued to increase around. Oh, those crazy Victorians. (via Eras of Elegance)
Teen Advisory Council of Students meets with Calvert Library staff to help plan and market programming for teens, as well as suggest materials for selection that would interest teens. This is volunteer work that counts towards community service hours. If you are a teen interested in making a difference for other teens in your community, please contact Rachel Hummel by calling 410.535.0291.
