Are you ready to celebrate with other Epsilon Beta Clubs?
Epsilon Beta State Library Club State Conference 2024 took place April 5-6 Francis Howell Central High School in Cottleville, Missouri. Students and sponsors from six chapters arrived around 45:00 on a Friday evening.
The students chose a Grimms fairy tale theme for the conference, and each school chose a different fairy tale to represent in costume. We had everything from Snow White and the Seven Dwarves to Little Red Riding Hood to,--of course-- Cinderella. Students voted for several awards in costuming.
Students also brought entries to our competitions which included a Book Shelfie competition, a Book Face competition, Book Talks, Book Toks, and Book Nooks. Students voted, and the winners were announced Saturday.
Our business meeting was held Saturday morning where several items of business were discussed, and officers for next year were chosen. Congratulations to our new State Officers: Co-President: Kaylin Mathews, McDonald County High School and Ainslyn Ditch, Jefferson City High School; Co-Vice President: Fabian Carney, Strafford High School and Adeline Law, Francis Howell Central High School; Secretary, Summer Suarez, Francis Howell Central High School; Communications Director: Lily Alford, Strafford High School.
Students and sponsors went on a tour of the original State Capitol Building in Old St. Charles before shopping on historic Main Street. After a sweet treat, the students and sponsors headed home after a great conference.
