Hello and Happy New Year! The Aldine Library is pleased to announce a new program for Latino families. We are collaborating with the YMCA to offer an exciting series of classes - IN SPANISH-  that promote healthy living. Salsa, Sabor y Salud is an 8 week program that meets on Tuesday evenings from 5:30-7 PM starting Tuesday, January 15th. The goal of the program is to have families eat from all food groups, take small portions, be physically active, and take small steps. The program is for the whole family. Kids are welcome. ¡Bienvenidos!
