Resource of the Month: New Stencils! A couple weeks ago the PRC took a poll to see which stencils you wanted to add to our wonderful collection. And the results? Circles 3” and 2”, Railroad Track (border), Pumpkin Patch, Gift and Ribbon, Scroll, and Icicles (border). Come to the PRC to check out these beauties and use them on your fall boards! We have a lovely sample located under the small bulletin board to the left of the front door.
PRC Reminders!
Tool Kits can be checked out for 3 days. Please be sure to return promptly so they are available to others!
You can check out Bulletin Boards in a Bag for one month. We have a variety of topics so come see if any work for you.
Like a Bulletin Board in a Bag, Programs at Your Fingertips are premade programs. These can be checked out for one week.
We also have coloring books, Play Doh, finger paint, hula hoops, Christmas lights, tiki torches, board games, videos, overhead projector, and many other items that can be checked out and used for a program! Be sure to ask a PA if you have any questions about finding these or how long they can be checked out for.
CHALLENGE #2
DON'T CRIMP OUR STYLE. Use the paper crimper in some way on your next bulletin board. If you don't know what the paper crimper is or how to use it, ask a PA. Remember to post a picture of your completed board on FB to be eligible to win a super awesome prize!
