Dear Kitsap/Olympic Peninsula Branch Members,
 
Saturday, October 29th, 2011, will be our next meeting. Please note the  
time for this event is: 10am - 11:30am at Bethany Lutheran Church on  
Bainbridge Island. Their website is: _www.bethanyofbainbridge.org_ 
(http://www.bethanyofbainbridge.org) .  (Note: this is a time change from previous emails. 
There is no afternoon  meeting.) You do not have to be a current member to 
attend.
 
Please bring a potluck dish to share (with ingredients list, thank you). We 
 have a kitchen available and our branch will provide tea and coffee for 
the  meeting.
 
Cynthia Kupper, Executive Director for Gluten Intolerance Group, will be  
speaking to us about setting up our governing structure, networking with 
other  GIG branches, support from the national GIG office, fundraising, and the 
new GIG  website.
 
It is extremely important that as many of you attend as possible. At this  
time, we do not have officers or a Board of Directors. In order to be a 
branch  (or branches) of Gluten Intolerance Group, we will need to organize  
appropriately. Additionally, we will be choosing a new, shorter name for our  
branch that reflects our geographic region. All suggestions are welcome, so 
come  with your ideas!
 
Our branch already has cups, plates, forks, spoons, knives, napkins, and  
cleaning supplies. Set up time is 9am. Clean up time is 11:30 am until  noon.
 
Please bring your family and friends. It is so important that you spread  
the word for this event!! This meeting will determine our future program in 
GIG.  Your ideas and commitment are deeply appreciated!
 
Remember, everyone is welcome to attend.

Warmest Regards,
Nancy Tietje
Peninsula Branch GIG
