Orange teens Patricia Thomson, Melissa Cross, Rebecca Crystal, Samantha Crystal, Lizzy Giovanniello, and Lindsay Weiner were recently selected as the Connecticut winners of the You Are Here Teen Video Challenge 2011, a national competition for teens to get involved with reading and their public library's summer reading program.
The group’s creative video “U. Runique” depicts the girls using the Case Memorial Library and escaping through books into different fictitious worlds.

Isn't it awesome?!
For their hard work and ingenuity, the girls received a monetary award of $250 and the Case Memorial Library received $100. The library is going to use its money to buy some cool new stuff for the teen collection.
We're so proud of all of you! Congratulations!!
