January 2017

We have decided to make changes to the structure of our group.  Many people cannot come out to meetings so we are not going to schedule regular meetings.  We will still have this blog, and our yahoo account for email:  wichitacsa@yahoo.com.  You can use this site to tell others about new foods, restaurants, traveling with gluten intolerance or celiac, etc.  We want to share information that we normally would share at our meetings.  This might also include new medicines, tests, medical information.  When you hit "send" one of our leadership group will read it before posting.  Hopefully, we will avoid having something posted that is inappropriate.

We will continue to meet for dinner (celiacs eating out-- CEOs) at various locations in our area.  Please make sure the restaurant is still open before you come.  Many local restaurants have gone out of business.  If someone calls and lets us know that a restaurant has closed we will choose a new one for that date.  Gayle-788-2531, Bev 776-9369, Susan 779-5687.  Please leave a message because many of us do not answer unknown callers.

As always, family and friends are always welcome to any of our activities!

Our annual Potluck Dinner will be Oct. 22, Sat., 1pm at Morningstar Community Church, 11010 E. Kellogg Dr.  The speaker will be Dr. Dean McGee and he will speak about general health issues we may have.  Bring a main dish and one side or dessert to share.  Our group provides drinks and serviceware.  As always, please bring the wrapper, box, or recipe so people with other allergies can decide if they can eat it.  New people do not need to bring food, but may bring  fruit or vegetables if you want to.

 We received money from DeVaughn and James as part of the Kakelandcares program. Here is the link for the interview.
