And You Thought Shaving Cream was Just for Shaving

Hot Fun in the Summertime Series

Lee Hansen

I have to give a special shout-out to libraries that do a great job in offering children and teens a variety of good programming options. They're out to prove that libraries are more than places to borrow books.

WHAT: Annual Shaving Cream War

WHEN: July 6, 2011 (Wednesday)

TIME: 3:00 P.M.

WHERE: Mid-Continent Public Library-Grandview Branch

ADDRESS: 12930 Booth Lane, Grandview, MO 64030

PHONE: 816-763-0550

ADMISSION: Free but registration is required

GEARED FOR: Teens and young adults

HIGHLIGHTS:

Participants are advised to wear a swimsuit under their clothes and bring some towels with an old pair of running shoes that can get messy.

Can you just imagine who'll get zapped in the face and hair with mounds of shaving cream dripping all over them? No innocent bystanders allowed as anyone is fair game. Their laughter will be filled with glee as they relish in the idea of giving their friends a shower shave.

If you have a teen needing to let out some pent-up frustration, sign up today.

I wonder who will be victorious in this friendly and squishy competition of war.

NOTE: See their website for other locations where this activity will be held.
