What happens when you combine intense research, photography, and investigative inquiry?
Well, you have the most recent scavenger hunt at the Leesburg Public Library. And you also get ice cream afterwards. That’s important, too.
On Wednesday, June 17th, Leesburg teens broke out the cameras, questioned library employees, and poured through reference works in order to complete a list of questions. The fastest and most correct group won a free book of their choosing.
The toughest challenge? Taking a picture of a metal Scotty dog. Pictured is one group’s answer.
If you are registered for summer reading (registration is still open!) and were unable to attend Wednesday’s event, and you can think of another place in the library where one might find a metal Scotty dog, post your answer with a comment to this blog and win a free book!

On Wednesday, June 10th, Leesburg teens came to the Public Library and ripped the pages out of books! Normally, this would be a problem. However, the teens were altering old books in creative ways!
Unexpected visitors in the form of baby raccoons also dropped by.
Check out two examples of what you can do with altered books!
Come in next Wednesday for a photo scavenger hunt and ice cream sundaes!
