## About

Teen Treats is Guadalupe Library's monthly hands-on cooking club for teens, built around beginner-friendly techniques and recipes, and December's session is a gingerbread house contest. Teens 12 to 17 build and decorate their own gingerbread houses with materials the library provides, then see whose creation wins. No cooking experience is needed, and the session is a relaxed hour after school during the last week before winter break. The club is limited to ages 12 to 17. Registration is not required, so teens can simply show up at the library on Avenida del Yaqui.
