The second activity available to teens who call Lake Stevens home is called Antipodean Valentine’s Day Party. This event will take place from 3 p.m. until 4 p.m. Antipodean means NOT, so come join others who are against all of the mushiness of Valentine’s Day and have a great time amongst friends. All who come will be able to make black duct tape roses, decorate cookies, eat snacks that give bad breath, play games for prizes, and mock the commercial portrayals of romance. The Lake Stevens Library, located at 1804 Main Street, is a wonderful asset to this community. Come for a special event, to check out a book or movie, get some work done, or utilize one of the many community resources.
