Topic: RE: Ideas
I think that is a fabulous idea! When the weather gets nicer we will deffinitely work on aranging that. I am also very big into advocacy and walk for many causes. I am hoping POSE will join forces for some of these causes and we can walk for fitness and health.

Any other ideas are always welcome so please never hesitate!

Hi I noticed that you were looking for ideas for meetings. What about a walk on the Long Beach board walk or something like that. The weather will be getting nicer.
