Group Update

Sep 09, 2012

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to give you all an update on what is going on with the group.  I am not going to be able to continue to lead the group at this point.  I have a lot going on in my personal and work life that I have to deal with, and it will be consuming my attention over the next few months.  I am so sorry for this.  I will still keep this facebook group up and will continue to comment, offer support and update you.  But I will no longer be able to plan face to face meetings.  I would encourage anyone who is interested to take the lead on that, and if I can attend a meeting I will.  Please feel free to ask me questions if you need anything and I will always do my best to respond.  I am just needing to find some balance with things and I have to let go of some things. 

I do appreciate all of you and love that you have supported me and others in our life long journey.  This by no means that I am leaving on a permanent basis, but I just have to remove myself as the main leader.  But I believe that the group belongs to everyone and that, like I said, if someone wants to organize meetings, please let me know and I will help when I can.

If I can arrange maybe some chat sessions on the computer I will and that way we can all still feel connected that way.

Thanks for your understanding and support in this part of my journey.

Love Jen

BBQ - Sunday, July 15th at 2:00pm

Jul 09, 2012

Hi Everyone,

Hope all is well with everyone these days. I wanted to post to remind everyone that I am having a BBQ next weekend at my house.

Details:
When: Sunday, July 15th
Time: 2:00pm - 5:00pm(ish)
Where: 958 Crescent Road, Fort Erie, ON L2A 5X6
Contact: Jenny Pennell-Ajie 289-407-4465 or
[email protected] or reply on here.
Please RSVP by Friday, July 13th so that I know how much stuff to have!

This is a POTLUCK BBQ. Please bring a dish for the stage of diet you are on right now so that everyone will have at least something to try. Please try and keep it healthy options or protein enhanced (Even dessert can be somewhat healthy).

If you have a great receipe maybe you can bring it for everyone to have so that they can try it at home. We have actually thought of putting together a receipe book so that might a great start.

Please bring a lawn chair if you have one, I have some but may not have enough. We will be outside, but let's get together rain or shine, we can move it inside if we have too.

Thanks so much, hope to see you on Sunday :)
Jenny

Please take this Survey....for Niagara Region WLS Group Members

Jun 04, 2012

Hey Everyone,

  I created this short survey (it only allow me 10 questions for free, so we may have another come out based on your answers of this one) so that we can try and make this group work for everyone. I have had very low numbers lately and we are wondering how we can reach more people effectively.

  As a result of some timing issues for me and the low numbers lately, I have decided to CANCEL Sunday, June 10th meeting. However I will still have the BBQ at my house on Sunday, July 15th at 2pm. Save that date for us. I hope many of you can make it. I will give more details out a little closer to the date. For now please click on the link below or copy/paste the link and take this survey to help us out.

Can you spare a few moments to take my survey?
Please take the survey titled "Niagara Region WLS Support Group". Your feedback is important!
