Battle of the Books! Winners Again


The Twinsburg team of Bob Liu, Mackenzie Barry, Stephanie Doran, Benjamin Bard and Natalie Tarchik made sure that the silver trophy will stay at TPL for another year! For the third time, Twinsburg teens defeated the Stow-Munroe Falls and Hudson Libraries to win the "Stand-off on Route 91" There was some fingernail chewing on my part, as Stow really gave our team a run for their money this year. The team did very well in all three lightning rounds, which gave them a nice lead, and answered 10 out of 12 "non-competitive" round questions. Cable 9 was there to film the event, which will appear during the coming months. Librarians Mark Simon and Beth Hatch put a lot of work into the program, preparing the team, writing questions and making sure the day went off without a hitch! This program was sponsored by the Friends of the Twinsburg Library, The Friends of the Stow-Munroe Falls Library, Cable 9 and the Learned Owl. Thank you teens, for making us proud!
