September 6th's Pembroke Community Media Center, Inc (PCMC) First Annual Children's Night was a packed affair and an especially yummy event for youth interested in getting involved with media production right here in Pembroke. Parents brought golden chocolate coins, candies, colored cookies, juices, sweetened crackers, and even flowers; but the biggest hit was a fast-disappearing bag of freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies straight from Program Director, Ms. Ann Ryerson's kitchen. Those happy, chocolate-laced faces in the photos belong to an ever-growing young fan base of Ms. R.'s baking expertise.
Two-year-old budding cameraman Paul B., spent time adjusting a tripod that was specially shortened to his height. Grandmother Cathie was amazed at how fascinated her grandson was with the equipment. “At first I was worried that little Paul shouldn't be touching the tripod, then I realized that's the whole point of this party. Yes, yes yes.”
Coming to the event gave Ms. Taveres, who brought grandchildren Michaela and William, an idea to reconvene the boisterous group at the Lydia Drake Library were she regularly volunteers. "I'll find out when the larger room is available, and we can tape a new reading show.”All agreed that would be a good plan, and two of the girls said they would write their own books. Katie R. said, “It's a new show so we should have new books. I wonder if the librarian will be there and will want to keep our stuff for others to read, because after a show is made with my book, it'll be famous.”
