Our next meeting is THIS THURSDAY! Man, sorry I haven't posted the details before now. Time slipped away from me with the lovely spring weather we have had.
This Thursday's meeting will be from 6-8pm at the Ledgewood School Library. Our topic is Traveling with Food Allergies. Bring your tips, best destinations and questions. We're sure to have some great conversations.
See you Thursday!
