calendar

Our first meeting was really productive and resulted in a lot of new ideas for the group!

There are two main ideas, which will be the backbone for the group:

1) We will have monthly meetings that will happen on a date when the majority of people can get together. Beforehand we will 'vote' on the topic of the meeting (see the new tab at the top of the screen). Majority vote will win the topic.

So you get the idea, some topics we came up with were: a one-off book read, an informal and informational yoga session, a wine tasting meeting, a meeting about planting an urban garden, a lesson on jam making and preserving, time management lesson, etc.

2) On our website we will have an events calendar about local happenings that we would like to go to.  Anyone can view this calendar or add events to it.  If there's an event you want to add to the calendar, post it on the website or email us at womeninphilly @ gmail.com.

Hopefully this way we can benefit from each other's knowledge and learn about cool things going on in and around Philly!  If there's an event that you want to attend you can also post on the website to see who else is going :)

For example, coming up this weekend is the Rivercity Festival in Penn Treaty Park, Fishtown, on Monday there's a free yoga class at juju organics, and then Friday has First Friday happenings in Philly and Wilmington (I'm going to the Wilmington First Friday with some friends!)


So check out the calendar and get voting on October's meeting topic!!!
