Hope everyone is having a fun and safe summer so far.

This is a very busy month for our family. Rather than having one gathering on the first Saturday of July, we are having several play dates over the course of the month. So far, we have scheduled Monday, July 9th at Forestville Park, at 4:00 pm, and Wednesday, July 25th at Howarth Park at 3 pm.

Hope you can join us for fun and support.

Our May gathering will be strolling/ bike riding/ roller skating on the Joe Rodota Trail. We will meet in the Hopmonk Tavern parking lot at 10.

The Joe Rodota Trail is 2.8 miles of paved trail that runs along an abandoned railroad line. The trail is a segment of the West County Trail and  offers an opportunity for families with young children to experience an outdoor outing for walking, bicycle riding, horseback riding, and roller skating.

We will be on the trail until noon. This is an opportunity to share mutual support and strategies for keeping ourselves and loved ones with type 1 healthy and happy. Come with any questions, and ready to have fun. Please bring water, snacks and all of your type 1 needs. Call Allison with any questions, 707.799.1523. Look forward to seeing you there!

JDRF will treat us to a discounted rate at Safari West this Saturday, March 3rd. We will gather from 10-noon.
Safari West: The spirit of Africa in the heart of wine country.

In addition to much fun, there will be an Omnipod representative to answer questions and talk about that device.
