We hope to connect with you at the Newcomers Connect Session. We will send an email to those who accept the RSVP with all the Zoom details. We can even practice Zoom with you before the meeting if you're new to Zoom. You can also attend the Zoom session by telephone (long distance minutes) if you don't have internet service where you are. We will love you until you love yourself.

Our fellow, Mardi, has graciously invited everyone to her lovely lakeside home who can come for the 10:00am meeting, Saturday, July 25th. If you cannot attend in person, it will also be on Zoom. You are welcome to bring your significant other. They can choose to participate in the meeting or frolic on their own. After the meeting, we can swim and play in Lake Murray. If you like, you can bring your own bagged lunch or pick something up from a nearby restaurant for a picnic in her yard overlooking Lake Murray. There is plenty of room to spread out in the sunshine or shade in the fresh air, as well as a screened porch, so distancing will not be a problem. Chairs and atmosphere provided - just bring your own lunch and drink if you like. The address is 229 Twin Gates Road Irmo SC 29063 Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/351672304 |
You are not alone anymore!
