Our very good friends that we met on the beach a day or two after 9/11 are seriously thinking of moving to sowal. They were in Atlanta and moved to Seattle last year. Nothing against Seattle but are not sure about raising their kids there. Any hoo they are coming to sowal next week and have asked me to arrange some type of get together in order for their kids to meet other kids from our area. There daughter will be going in to the fourth grade and their son in 6th. Any suggestions for getting together, even those with children of other ages. We could meet for pizza, play at the beach....appreciate and :welcome: any and all ideas.

There are only 2 "real locals" so don't expect lots of advise. Because I don't think they post anymore :idontno:

Frannie, check your PM for a lil' SoWal kids get-together idea. 😀

We lived in Seattle for 5 months when our kids were young. Beautiful city, but the cloud cover, rain, and lack of Southern hospitality were more than we could stand. :yikes:

Ultimately, SoWal sunshine and positive people are so much more to our liking! :blush:

hello! My name is Tamara Pfund, my 11 yr old daughter and I just moved down from Tennessee to join my husband, her dad, who has been here working since November. Corinne, my daughter, is really wanting to meet some kids that are her age, we also need information about the middle schools here, preferably from experience rather that printouts from the school websites. I would be happy to help put something together, I would even be willing to offer our home as the " party " place or the beach in frony of our home. I can be reached at 901.626.1846.
