[yscon] October Greetings, YSCON!

[Boston, Carmen L. (DCPL)]

Yes! I am still on for Tuesday, October 17. Life at work has been really busy due to a new boss and down two staff members. I will try to get something out for prep while I am in Tucson attending the Family Learning Conference.

Hello YSCON Folks,

I hope this message finds everyone well and enjoying the seasonal changes. This message is a monthly reminder to reach out and touch someone. Or just share some news or questions from your corner of the world.

According to our schedule, Carmen from DC will be hosting our monthly online meeting on October 17th on the topic of Summer Learning/Library Programs. Jasmine, let us know if you are still willing/able to host November's meeting.

Speaking of November, many of us are scheduled to meet in Louisville as part of the YALSA forum.  Looking at the great info that Janet put together<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jduzMIgvGnqudXMHrdn7--DDA8G4fxDWWMBEyBj5fBw/edit?usp=sharing>, we have almost 24 people who are open to dinner on Sunday evening. I looked into it, and I couldn't find a restaurant within walking distance that would take such a large group. Therefore, I am wondering if we should split the group and look for 2 restaurants that could host 12 each or 3 that could host 8.

Please let me know if you have an opinion and/or what time we should try to make reservations for-maybe 7pm?

Wishing you a great rest of the week,
Tessa
