South St. Louis, Missouri - Event Announcement

I've not been very organized as of late with the holidays and our ongoing house renovations.  My intentions for this blog have thus been limited to a long list of things to write about someday.   I just wanted to pop on and use this as a place to provide notice of a fun event coming up here in South St. Louis.  


Shaw Avenue Children's Center (SACC) is hosting their annual Trivia Night and Silent Auction on Saturday, January 28th at Oliva on the Hill.  $30 per person will provide you with free beer and prizes throughout the night (look for some Belle Journee products to be awarded!).  There are also some incredible items included in the Silent Auction.  Daycares are such an important resource for families and SACC has been serving the community for 23 years. Proceeds will help them continue to provide quality daycare for the next generation as well as provide tuition scholarships for families in need of assistance.  For more information or to reserve a table, please contact Michele Dando at Michelesmith79@yahoo.com


I hope the new year is going well for everyone.   Be sure to stay tuned as next Monday we'll be announcing our next giveaway package!
