NC Statewide Meetup - Final details
But here we go.
We will meet up on Saturday, October 4th in Asheboro at the Golden Corral (1070 East Dixie, 27203) at 10:00am for a quick get together and breakfast. Yes, if you come, you should eat something if at all possible since we are using their room. If you identify yourself as part of the NC WLS group, you will get $1 discount, and they will attach the gratuity to the check (now I don't feel so guilty when I forget cash in Raleigh).
We'll meet, eat, talk, and such, then caravan over to the zoo together. For us to get the group rates, everyone has to enter the zoo at the same time. Also, I need one week notice to call and get the tickets, so the cutoff for the discounted tickets is 9/27 (an extension due to my laziness).
The African exhibit is the one that gets quiet first, and it's active until about 2pm.. that should give us plenty of time to get around to that part of the zoo. The zoo closes at 5pm.
So for the nitty gritty details without narrative:
When: Saturday, October 4th
Time: 10:00 at Golden Corral, then caravan to zoo around 11:45
How much: Adults: $10
Children 2-12: $6
Seniors 62+: $8
Prepayment deadline: 9/27
I will accept payment at the Raleigh meetup, as well as checks by mail. My paypal is currently being used for my cancer friend, and I don't want to intermingle funds.

Any questions? Comments? Valium? Send them my way.
Feel free to share with your local support groups, friends, enemies (although, point the enemies out), etc. My kids will be coming, maybe a hubby.. so feel free to drag your clan around with you.
You are awesome Andrea for doing this. Since my kid may be home from school that weekend, is it ok if i pay at the gate? I will bring hubby and meet at Golden Coral so i can meet all of you wonderful ppl. I also probably would never get the ck in the mail to you since i feel senile most of the time.
Thanks again!

I also appreciate all the info you provide regarding nutrition and supplements. I have talked to several by pass patients that take NO supplements (calcium or B12) and vitamins when they think of it. I hate it that they don't understand what has happened to their bodies any more than this - plain old common sense would tell you you must take supplements to stay healthy!!

Hi Andrea,
Thanks so much for all you are doing. As you know, I've been out of the loop for a bit with the wedding and other things going on in CA. I'm still in CA and will be here until 9/16, then off to NYC 9/17 to 9/20.

P.S. FYI ...The Golden Corral we use in Raleigh doesn't attach a gratuity to the bill.
