Hi All,

It's amazing just how quickly the time is flying. The Raleigh Area Get Together for October is just around the corner. If you are interested in joining us, please rsvp to Http://wls.meetup.com/101 so that I can get a good headcount. You can get all the details when you RSVP. I really to appreciate it when you do take the time to RSVP because in order to use the facility, I need to know how many will be attending so that they can set aside the space.

Clothing Exchange - During the brunch, we will be having a clothing exchange this time for those who are interested in participating... It's certainly not necessary, but it's a fun way to be able to share clothes with others and get a few goodies in return. We'll set up a table or two in the back corner for swaps. Just bring things that you can no longer wear, but you think might be useful to someone else as they make their way down the clothing ladder. This is a clothing swap, not a sale, so just bring things that you are willing to give to someone else and you are welcome to pick out things that that others might have that you can use. Anything that you bring that is not selected by someone else needs to be taken home.

Goodwill Hunting - After the brunch I'm hosting a second event which I affectionately call "Goodwill Hunting" that will start around noon. Sometimes we hit an actual Goodwill store, but basically it refers to second-hand shopping at thrift and consignment stores. I'll put together some maps and lists of stores that I know of in the area that reliably have some nice finds for plus sizes as well as those us that now fall into ...dare I say the other "P" category ... Petites ... Who would have ever thought?! We normally do a combination of carpooling and caravaning to 4 to 6 stores until we get hungry and wind up going to dinner before we take our bounty and booties home. You can join us for the whole trip or just go to a couple of the stores and then be on your way. Whatever works best for you is fine.

I hope that you'll consider joining us for one of both of the upcoming events.

All the best,

Barb
