I think that if everyone in Skokie switches to these kind of light bulbs then maybe... just maybe we will cut down the amount of energy that we use. This is why I made this little "movie". It's to remind everyone that there is still a chance in a very funny way. ;)

SkokieNet teen volunteers Aleks and Erica interview Skokie Mayor George Van Dusen about his reading habits.

I can truly say that this is probably the best video we have done so far. It is very humorous and cheesy. Yet it shows everything that you can use in our very own Teen Corner. If I speak for everyone that has worked on this video, I'd say that we had a lot of fun making this. Everyone's contribution to the making of this video helped us show our best. We are all very thankful to Clare Keating, who edited all of our videos. I was not speaking for myself, because if I was I would keep on babbling on about how awesome you guys are, but I was speaking from all of us volunteers who work in the SkokieNet office. We are truly grateful to work with such wonderful people.
