TOMS FARMS - Thursday Update!!!

You and yours are cordially invited to spend an autumn day at Tom's Farms in Corona this coming Saturday, November 15th, from 9am to 3pm for a good ol' unofficial OH get together!
           

As this is the date of our Inland Empire Loser's support meeting...
we are having our November meeting at 10am at TOMS!
How cool is that?

We'll cover two topics this meeting.... "Vitamins" and "Focus On Your Holidays!".

I had set up an e-vite for this event but at this point I am bringing it to the board for organizational purposes. Please respond here if you want to/are coming or to ask for more information. I have posted some of those that responded below but need confirmations from them as well as responses from those I didn't have a record of.
Sorry guys!


The terms are the same. Usually TOMS FARMS requires a catered meal for a gathering BUT since we are a WLS group they are waiving that on the condition that our folks will purchase our food and drink at the various restaurants and stores there. All of us who have been involved with the TOMS events in the past know it's a good deal and thank TOMS for waiving this requirement.
So the bottom line is you can't bring any food or drinks with you.

Also NO ALCOHOL!!!

Stop at the Welcome Booth when you arrive to sign in and get your name badge(s). I need some folks to help with set up, to man the Welcome Booth during the event and tearing it down. We will also host a protein exchange here as well (protein, supplements and/or WL friendly snacks/foods that don't suit you). Bring your items and leave them at the booth when you arrive
Welcome Booth Volunteers:

Karaoke Nadine

There will be a clothing exchange. I will need volunteers to set up, tear down and take the leftovers to donate to charities.
Clothing Exchange Volunteers:
Katt

We could use some easy-ups for the Welcome Booth and Clothing Exchange. I have two tables for the Welcome Booth and chairs so that should be covered. If anyone has some folding tables/card tables we can use for the Clothing Exchange area that would be a big help as well. Please post here if you can help out with these!

I wanna come soooooooo bad but I just can't afford it. With just coming off of disability, the doc has me only working part time until December.........I'm so nervous about what my paycheck will be tomorrow.

Next year for sure!

Luv Ya Steve!

Hey Steve! Sorry it took me so long to reply! I am coming for a couple hours in the morning but have to leave by noonish as I have other plans later in the afternoon. Looking forward to seeing everyone and looks like we will at least have good weather! I also have a couple bags of clothes I am bringing for the exchange. See you all Sat morning!

Ooops, meant to add that it will just be me alone!

Put us on the maybe list!  My husband and I will be there if it doesn't turn out to be moving day at work.

Another year I will not be able to make Tom's Farm

Kim

Hey Steve,

I am going to try and make it... It will be me + 1.

 

What would be the easiest way to get to Tom's Farms from Buena Park? 
I am next door to Knott's Berry Farm.  I can take either the 5, or the 91.  I have never been  out to Tom's Farms, so any help would be very much appreciated!!!

Smiles:)

Good Evening Tricia!

You'll want to take the 91 freeway, east toward Riverside.
When you get to Corona you want to watch for the 15 Freeway.
Take the 15 Freeway SOUTH, toward San Diego, and exit at Temescal Canyon Road. Turn right when you exit the freeway and TOMS is right there. Go past the buildings and turn left into the gravel parking lot. We will be right inside the gate from that parking lot.
