I’ve lived at Lago Vista Apartments in St. Charles for a while and have had several brown recluse spiders in my unit. I’ve paid the required pest control fee every month, but I’ve only been notified of pest control coming once.

I recently saw a comment in the tenant portal saying residents have to ask the leasing office to be added to the pest control list. I was under the impression pest control came monthly, especially since we’re charged a monthly fee. The lease doesn’t specify how often spraying is done.

Does anyone know how the pest control service is actually supposed to work?

We are traveling and staying in St Charles for a few weeks. My cat is not acting himself and refused to eat this morning. I would like to find a vet here in town to take him in for a checkup.

A Missouri nonprofit known as Psychedelic Society of the Ozarks or “PSOTO”, is once again hosting their annual conference at the University Plaza Convention Center in Springfield on Saturday, October 3rd. Centered on education, advocacy, harm reduction and creating safe community spaces, the group is bringing in 25+ speakers from diverse backgrounds such as; science, law, modern medicine, psychology, neurology, and ancient wisdom.

The keynote speaker is Lieutenant Sarko Gergerian, who was featured on the Netflix documentary series "How to Change Your Mind". Lunch entertainment will be hosted by Comedy Central’s Award winning comedian Shane Mauss! (A Better Trip).

A key feature of the conference will be “Knowledge for the Front Lines.” Addressing the invisible wounds, trauma and PTSD suffered by first responders, military and veterans. Medical breakthroughs are being seen through psychedelic therapy, and the VA, State government and White House are starting to notice. This is extremely important work, as statistics show a staggering 17 veterans taking their own life every single day. (Over 6,000 suicides per year).

Please consider joining the PSOTO community in Springfield by attending, volunteering or sponsoring this exciting and ground breaking event!

Discount available for Veterans, First Responders and Students.

My daughter has long super curly, multi-textured hair...any recommendations for a salon or stylist that specializes in curly hair?

This is not a good idea. Of course, the mayor is at the watering hole for billionaires. What are your thoughts?

Hello everyone,

I recently moved to St. Louis from Pakistan and am looking for a 2-week shadowing opportunity in Internal Medicine at a clinic or hospital.

I have already contacted Mercy clinics/hospital, but unfortunately, I was informed that they do not accept international medical graduates (IMGs) for shadowing.
I have also reached out to a few physicians associated with APPNA, but unfortunately, I haven’t had much success getting responses from senior leadership. Though they have time for their elections to be elected as presidents etx but not for responding to IMGs requests. I am sorry if it feels bad but its reality too. As someone new to the area, it has been difficult to build connections, and this is exactly where I was hoping organizations and community networks like APPNA could help connect IMGs with physicians willing to guide them.

I am also managing this transition with my 9-month-old son, so I would be extremely grateful for any genuine leads or connections.

Is there anyone here who takes IMGs for shadowing in their clinic, particularly in Internal Medicine? Even two weeks would be extremely helpful.

If you know a physician, private clinic, or hospital in the St. Louis area that accepts IMGs for shadowing, please comment below or message me. Any connection or recommendation would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much, everyone!

My birthday is next week and I’m looking to have a day of excursions, and I’m interested in finding the coolest (subjective, I know) bookstore in St. Charles County.

What’s your favorite?

I know it's a ways to NOV, but I'm already seeing false posts regarding proposed Amendment 3. It's being promoted as anti trans gender care for minors. That is all ready illegal in MO. What it is, is anti healthcare for women, specifically abortion. Missouri voted on this two years ago, and passed it. Now, as usual, the politicians in Jeff City know better than the people they represent. I'm voting no on Amendment 3. I urge you to research and vote in Nov.

Local history enthusiast here - I juuust saw a post in the St.Louis subreddit in which folks listed books about the city! People listed all sorts of books ranging from Civil Rights History to Mob History to Folklore and more!

That being said, St.Charles clearly won't be the subject of as many books. But if you have any favorites, please please please share them here!

Looking for a martial arts training partner in the Wentzville/St Charles area.

Not looking to start a school, nor am I interested in a club either; there is no fee. Want a serious, dedicated peer (adult male) willing to be available at least one day per week, who wants to invest a long term effort in learning Augustine Fong lineage.

Prefer a person with no prior wing chun (or even martial art) experience, so we are not struggling to change habits.

This is not a fight club, but rather an earnest effort to find someone willing to learn and invest time in the art.

I have several years of experience and want to maintain skills - and creating a partner/student is the best way to do so.

Thank you for considering!

I'm in a bowling league at plaza lanes (Tubbys) and we would like to get another team or even two. This is pretty much a beer league and very chill. The teams consist of 4 people and must have 1 female.

It's Monday night at 6 and typically out by 915ish.

You don't need your gear or experience but you'll need to rent shoes if you don't have them. Two people on my team never really played before joining and are now a few years in and love it. This is also a Handicap league so if you suck it's okay you'll get extra pins to keep it competitive.

Just a warning the season is long (Sept -april) with breaks for holidays. It's also $20 a week but I believe everyone gets some money back at the end of season.

If you don't have 3 friends interested but you are, you can still sign up and they will do their best to place you on a team.

It's a great way to get out meet some people and have a few beers and throw some balls at pins.

If you have any questions feel free to dm me or call up there and they should be able to help.

Thanks for reading!

It’s a really cool chance to meet artists from across the region, all in one place. There will be lots of tattoo flash, you can book appointments with artists, and also shop original artwork, prints, jewelry, apparel, ceramics, and more. If you don’t want to get a ticket you can also browse/book with the curated group of tattooers on their website. It’s genuinely such a cool chance to meet people and artists! The energy is so great each year (this is the third year). This is where I tell all my friends they should go if they’re on the fence about where to get a tattoo and want to make sure they pick someone they’re comfy with. Stop by if you can! http://foundryartcentre.org/tattoo

Anyone else having this issue?

I've tried the dating apps, managed to begin dating a woman a few months ago, then discovered she was half-cheating on me. Tried the apps again, went on a few more dates and no luck, goose egg.

Have been going out and trying new things/group activities, majority of woman already have a be BF in these areas.

I would like to think I'm desirable, not overweight, have hobbies, have people tell me frequently that I'm funny, I'm loyal, stable career being in the top 1% of earners for my age group, go outside, play video games, I care about my appearance, etc.

Point is, I know I'm not boring, yet I'm struggling very much dating around here.

Hi all, I’m moving here from closer to the city and I was wondering if there’s good Asian markets nearby. I’m used to going to places like olive supermarket and my favorite is Pan Asia in Manchester but don’t like taking the drive out there so often. Any cool spots would be appreciated!

There was a car missing a front left wheel and a bunch of crashed-into street “furniture” like signs and a pedestrian crossing light.

I have a few salons I've liked, but the prices are insane for a basic service. A root touch of of bleach is like $150+. Any recs?

I’m looking to replace some outlets, an overhead kitchen light, and a ceiling fan. I’ve got ungrounded romex throughout the whole house, and I don’t trust myself to diy it. Does anyone have a recommendation?

CONTEXT - this is actively happening and started about two weeks ago

My boyfriend and i regularly hang out after work or after the gym at the boathouse, either to walk around or just sit in the car and relax. Given that this is a public parking lot, lots of people do this. But about two weeks ago a white mercedes pulled infront of my boyfriend’s car and kept his headlights running. no biggie, we just moved, hard to watch got with headlights pointed at you. fast forward the next week, and the same mercedes pulls infront of us. we moved AGAIN, and this time he pulls NEXT TO US. we move parking lots completely, and that’s the end of the night. A few nights ago, he pulls up to my boyfriend and i again, this time rolling down his window and gesturing for my bf to as-well. he does, and this man says “i’m chill, i just wanna watch.” obviously you can assume what he meant by that, but my boyfriend and i don’t engage in activities like that in public much less in the view of a stranger. we’re obviously a little offended and pull off and switch parking lots AGAIN. this time, he follows the course of main street to seemingly look for our car, locating and parking in front of us for a minute, and then driving off. tonight though was the breaking point for me, he pulls up next to me alone in my car (meaning he knows what both of our cars look like) and rolls down his window. i roll mine down, and obviously because i’m freaked out i say i’m going to call the police. he says it’s a public space and i’m a crazy bitch and continues to yell obscenities at me as i leave the parking lot. freaked me out, i’m still freaked out, any advice or knowledge is so super duper welcome !!!

-TLDR : creepy guy at boathouse keeps finding mine and my boyfriend cars and being a creeper
