My name is Audrey Mooney and this is my fourth year on the Bulldog Barker staff.  I am in 8th grade and my position on the Bulldog Barker is Co-Editor-in-Chief.  My favorite color is blue.  I play French Horn and Bassoon in the band.  One thing I like about the newspaper is how all the staff members have to work together to make the paper happen.  In the future, I would like to do something with music.  I can’t wait to write my first article this year!
