About Saint Charles Parish, LA

St. Charles Parish Use of Video to Pass Along Local Information

Frank Rubi  Kenner/Metairie LA Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Kenner, LA
This video was produce by our local parish government. My home is in this video. Here a great example of a community blog. The St. Charles Parish Government, in my opinion is the most progressive government in the Greater New Orleans. Before Hurricane Gustav the parish would post local information and events using www.youtube.com. Just today the video posted help calm my wife nerves on the condition of our home. I have just started to post using video and can see the advantage. Keep checking back for future updates with the use of video.

St. Charles Parish Library

St. Charles Parish Library

It has been some time since I visited a public library. One recent visit and a first to the St. Charles Parish Library surprise me with their offerings. The parish public library offers a large amount of upcoming events to include a movie night for teens and a Wii competition. In addition to a large amount of computers for public use there is a wireless zone. The wireless zone is for those who bring their own computer for connection to the internet. Click on St. Charles Parish Library to visit their website. To cap off this exciting library experience they offer a large amount of current books to check out.
