Poetry Races

On Saturday, April 14, Ottawa Hills Branch and other branch libraries held the first poetry races to celebrate National Poetry Month. Participants had to say three official tongue twisters -- which were available at race locations -- as fast as they could for a minute. The races were loads of laughter and lots of fun. But they're not over yet.

Are you a fast talker? Do you like funny things? Then put the two together and enter our next poetry race for kids. You have to try to say 3 tongue twisters, without any mistakes, as fast as you can in a minute. Think you can do
it? Why not try? It's going to be fun. Our next poetry races will be:

  • Wednesday, April 18, 2007, 4:00 pm Madison Square Branch, 1201 Madison SE
  • Monday, April 23, 2007, 7:00 pm Yankee Clipper Branch, 2025 Leonard NE
  • Tuesday, April 24, 2007, 6:30 pm West Leonard Branch, 1017 Leonard NW
  • The photo features Branch librarian, Catherine Page, giving a lollipop to Gabe for being the smoothest, fastest talker in Ottawa Hills.
