Please bring unstained unripped washed clothes to exchange with everyone. Also a Bariatric friendly dish.

We will still be doing the 15 minute rule. To all that don't understand it. Here is an explanation of it. ...

The Exchanges purpose is to exchange clothes instead of buying them every three months for those of us who have had surgery. We open the Clothing exchange to everyone. Pre op, post op, those just thinking to have it, family members, Etc. But do to events that happened in the past a 15 minute rule was put into effect. The first 15 minutes only post ops are allowed in the clothes area. After that everyone can join. There will be an announcement saying when we can start looking and another announcement when the 15 minutes are up and everyone can join in. ( I will do better this time around about saying when the 15 minutes is up last time I forgot so sorry to all those that waited long after the `5 minutes) .

The Church we are using is letting us use it free of charge. It does have a food pantry so if anyone would like to donate to it that would be great.

if anything is missing from this information please feel free to add

Thanks

Robin

Also, we have a pitch-in lunch so bring a bariatric friendly dish to share. Oh...and either bring copies of the recipe or post it here cause you KNOW we are all going to want it! LOL!

Is it ok that since I am only 3 months out I wont have alot of clothes to exchange yet? I do have some but am still only a couple sizes smaller in pants. I expect to have plenty to contribute in the future. I just was wondering.

Thanks!
