Mutiny in Alpine Township

It all started innocently enough. A few pirates visited and took over the Alpine Township Hall for a Kent District Library program. Jackie Sparrow was there to read to the young children in attendance. Josh and Jonathan Whalebane were there for moral support.

But it wasnt long after the story reading that it became obvious what all the children had in mind.....to become pirates themselves. They created their own costumes, eye patches, colored parrots, and then decided to have a mutiny of their own, resulting in sword fights and lots of trouble. It got so bad that even the library staff got into a sword fight. Fortunately, peace was restored before the evening ended.
