Hey guys anyone out there in the So. Calif area that would like to get a Support Group going? I know there is a support group that meets in Orange County but how about getting one closer to maybe the Los Angeles Area? Some people will go to both and some will go to one or the other. We could have annual Bandsters Conferences down the line with guest speakers and the like.

I am willing to work with someone to set up the meetings and get them up and running.

Let me hear from you guys out there.

I know the San Diego bandsters meet on the 2nd Sunday of the month, and the OSCB's meet on the 3rd Sunday of the month, so it might be good to not pick one of those days to increase your participation pool.

At lot of the OSCB people are meeting junkies, and a couple have even driven down to SD to attend our meeting if they've missed theirs and need a fix. A couple of the SD'ers drive up to the OSCB meeting each month as well.

The more meetings the merrier! I think there are a LOT of people in your area, so you may want to mention it on smartbandsters, bandsters, and gradbandsters as well.

Donali: Thanks bunches. I did post to Smartbandsters and Bandsters but couldn't find gradbandsters. Any suggestions?

What about that name?

How about "Lola"? Means bad girl in Spanish, I believe...

Donali,

I applied to graduate bandsters and they emailed me a list of criterias I had to meet to join. I knew instantly I wouldn't qualify and don't think Penni will either. There was something about having had the band at least 6 months, had a 50 lb weight loss and a certain number of fills. Maybe you and Penni could colaborate to get a post on that site. T

Sorry, I always forget there are criteria. I thought it was just 6 months, though - sheeezzz, they're getting so exclusive.

Penni I will post your SoCal post to the grad board.

Thanks Donali I appreciate it and so does Lola

Just keep Lola away from DeLarla - she's already terrorizing the smartbandster board.... lol

I know I saw her there. I am gonna have to join her with Lola. LOL!! That would be fun. HEE HEE HEE

You guys can get together with Sue and have an alias-making-up party for when you get banned, so you can join again right away and not miss a thing... lol

OOOOH you are too smart. LOL:D
