Changes

La Leche League of Sandy is going through some changes.  Long time leader, Kathy Grossman moved to Moab.  While saying goodbye is hard, we are very happy to welcome a new leader to our ranks!  Meghan Johnston, leader with LLL of Salt Lake City will now be leading with our group as well.

Rocio, Meghan and I (Renee) will be holding series meetings as usual, but our Enrichment meetings will be changing.  We will now only offer three Enrichment meetings per year.  They will be held the first month of each series on the usual day, the fourth Tuesday of the month. For 2012 we will have an Enrichment meeting in January, May and September.

We look forward to a new year full of helping mothers and babies.  Hope to see at our next series meeting on December 13, 2011!
