 Build a gingerbread house this holiday season to enter in the 2nd Annual Gingerbread House contest at the Tecumseh Public Library from December 1st through December 8th.
Have fun creating a unique house or structure to enter into one of three categories in the contest. Categories are Kids ages 8-12, Teens ages 13-17, and Adults 18 & up. Any architectural structure such as a house, train station, spaceship, or lighthouse, is eligible for entry and must be no larger than 15"x15"x15". All entries must be original and made from edible materials. No gingerbread kits allowed. No graham crackers may be used on the basic structure of the house, but can be used as a decoration such as a shutter, etc.
Entries will be received at the library on Tuesday, December 1st between 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. and will be displayed from December 2-18 for voting for the People's Choice Award. All other winners will be chosen by judges. Only one entry per person. No professionals please.
Ribbons will be awarded to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners in each category. A People's Choice winner will be voted on by library visitors who may vote once a day on their favorite house. The Grand Prize Winner will be chosen by judges. The People's Choice and Grand Prize Winner will each receive a ribbon as well as gift certificates from local businesses.
Come by the library at 114 N. Broadway for a complete set of contest rules, information, and an entry form. Library employees and their immediate family are not eligible for this contest. Call 598-5955 for more information. |

 October is all about safety at the Sixth Annual D.A.R.E. Kids Safety Day sponsored by the Tecumseh Public Library, D.A.R.E., and the Tecumseh Police Department. The event is scheduled for Saturday, October 10, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Middle School parking lot at 315 W. Park in Tecumseh.
The annual event draws a large crowd of children and adults to see the OU Medi-Flight helicopter, police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and other equipment that are on display. The activities are designed so that children can learn how to stay safe and what to do during emergency situations. The smoke house will once again be available so that participants can learn how to exit their home during a fire.
Representatives from the police and fire departments, animal control services, React Ambulance Service, and OU Medical Center Medi-Flight will be available to answer any questions that kids may have. The bomb squad will have their equipment on display and demonstrate how it works. Added to the event this year, parents can have their children fingerprinted courtesy of the Tecumseh Police Department.
