PEPS is sponsoring two new specialty groups:  Postpartum Adjustment Support Group, which will meet monthly at the PEPS office in Wallingford (http://pepsgroup.org/programs/postpartum.htm for more info) and Second Time Around, a newborn group for parents with newborns and small children.  This group will meet for 16 weeks at the North Seattle Family Center in Shoreline (more info: http://pepsgroup.org/programs/secondtime.htm).

We are happy to receive suggestions for activities and events to include.  Email amy@dalydonovan.com with your requests and we’ll post them.  Please also take a look at our local Resource Guide for listings of stores and services in West Seattle of interest to families.  We are also happy to add to this list, just let us know.

5.  Come Bowling With Us!

Join with fellow PEPSters for a night out at the lanes!  Let’s get together for some fun & socializing.  We have reserved a few lanes at West Seattle Bowl on Friday March 3rd at 8pm. 

 

Cost is $5/person and covers the cost of bowling.  You will be responsible for the cost of your own shoes ($1.50) and any refreshments.  Please reply to Jane Wainwright by Friday February 24 (wainwright@seanet.com) if you can join us – we need a minimum of 15 to secure our reservation and if we get an enthusiastic turnout we will reserve more lanes!

 

6.  We Need Newsletter Submissions

A rather skimpy newsletter this month, eh?  Please feel free to send ideas, postings, announcements, and any other interesting tidbits to help keep this monthly newsletter a good read!  Email to amy@dalydonovan.com or simply reply to this email.  Thanks!
