Welcome to Audrey! We have a lighter month in March. Introducing Audrey, our new Youth Services Librarian II! Audrey is coming from the Lewis & Clark Branch of the St Louis County Library system. She has a passion for history, fitness, and writing. If you see her at the desk, she'd love to meet you! March is a lighter month for programming as we are still training Audrey and recovering from a busy February. April will pick back up with more programs and another reading challenge! We have started planning our Family Tea Party for May 9 at 1 pm, and we have a theme we are really excited about! You can see a sneakpeek of our theme at the end of the newsletter! Registration opens April 1, so mark your calendars. Do your kiddos have trinkets they are looking to trade? Are their fast food prizes cluttering up your car? Come try our Trinket Trading Post and vote to name our Trinket Crow! Learn more by visiting the Youth Services Desk. Best, Aimee Villet Youth Services Director
