Camp Widow 2010

August 6-8, 2010

San Diego Marriott Hotel and Marina

San Diego, California

Yes, we have a date! And we brown shirts would love to see you back in San Diego for more laughs, more great workshops, a dance floor at the banquet, a Sunday morning breakfast...and another chance to participate in the Widow Dash! Don't miss the fun, mark your calendars now!

We are taking the many things that worked, and tweeking the few things that didn't, to create a program called Camp Widow. One of you said this..."My daughter went to camp, and I did too!" Which got us to thinking about giving this weekend a name that speaks to the uplifting spirit of our gathering. YOU made this weekend amazing, and we are determined to plan an even better event next year.

So tell your friends, early registration will begin November 1st. Camp Widow merchandise will be on sale at www.sslf.org beginning October 15th...everything is really cute and please send me stories about the looks on people's faces when they read your shirt.

Short commercial: We will need sponsors to make this all happen, and could use help in locating them! So spread the word...Camp Widow needs you! As always, your gratefully accepted donation is tax-deductible and can be mailed to the address below. We also accept donations by Paypal at widowsbond@sbcglobal.net Any amount helps us reach our goal of raising $100,000 to fund the programs that we currently run and to expand our reach in the future. It is time for widows to have a voice, we can do this together!And the 2009 mailing list is available for any interested attendees.

The list also includes blog addresses for those who have provided them. Just send me a quick note, and I will forward you the list. Next year we will improve the mailing list process!

Yours in hope,

Michele

Boo - - I am so looking forward to seeing you and hopefully other people from this site who helped me (and are still helping me) get through the hardest period of my life. I am counting the days.
