Excitement in Exeter over the Pants

Although it was school vacation week and a beautiful, warm day with spring beckoning outside, fifteen creative teens who love the Traveling Pants series came to the multi-activity program planned to celebrate the arrival of our pair of pants. In addition to signing the pants and designing our patch, teens could go wild and crazy on a pair of pants that will remain in our Teen Scene area. Denim bags to decorate and take home were popular. Raffle drawings were held for a DVD of the movie and for copies of the Sisterhood books. The trivia contest was a big hit and yummy food was enjoyed. Best of all, new friends were made amidst discussions of middle school versus high school activities. And one teen quoted from the book, "Don't ask me where I am going...because I don't know. "We do know, however, that the pants are now on their journey to Brentwood.
