Mid-State Girls interested in Monthly Support Outings?

ok, well, i am so excited that there is a LOWCOUNTRY and UPSTATE group able to get together and well, i am here in Columbia, right in the middle. Are there any ladies here in the mid-state interested in meeting monthly? I would be more than happy to facilitate, emails, getting us all set and staying on track with finding a place, etc.. But not sure how much interest there is. SO........REPLY and let us know that YOU TOO don't want to be left out of all the FUN...... I'll go first - I'm interested ~~~~ COUNT ME IN!

I havent had my surgery yet,insurance still pending!!!!! However i am interested and i live in North Augusta. I think we all could have a great time and learn alot.

Hey there...I live in Lexington. I haven't had my surgery yet either, but I would be interested in meeting several that have and making new friends. Wouldn't it be great to have another support system!!!! Let me know more about it and I will try to arrange my schedule so I can attend. FYI...I tend to run wide open, kids in sports and band...so I won't be able to make all the meetings but will give it my best. --Kelly

Sounds like fun. You can count me in. Maybe getting back around some newbies will help me get back in gear so I can lose this last 25 lbs!

Hello Heather..I am just outside of Columbia in Lugoff and I would be interested... I also have a friend and I think she would be interested also... I think It would be fun... Brenda...

awesome ladies....a good response thus far. Very cool. Well, we'll aim to get together possible the last week of October? Details to follow and in the meantime, you ladies, post away! ANy suggestions on locations you ladies have, do tell!

I'm supposed to be traveling to the beach for work the 25th through the 27th, but if that's what works for everyone else, perhaps I'll catch it next time. Thanks for volunteering to coordinate this. I think it can be very helpful.

LOOK AT YOU, MS HEATHER ... A BORN LEADER! WAY TO GO, GIRL! JUST LIKE MS DAWN IN THE UPSTATE & MS LORI HERE IN THE LOWCOUNTRY. GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK

Heather, Why don't you post some possible dates and places and let everyone vote on them. Or, just pick a date and a place and see who can make it. I know we are still in football season so it will be hard for me to make it but I will give it my best effort. If DH can get off work to be with DS at football then I will be able to make it. I have one request -- no Sundays or Wednesdays we have church activities that we won't miss. One other suggestion...find out where everyone is from and try to pick a place as close to the center of all the loactions as possible. JMO --Kelly
