We hope everyone had a great summer and are getting back into the swing of things now that Fall has officially begun! It’s time to begin a new year with DSIG, so please join us for our first meeting of the season at our new meeting location, Widener University!
For a map of the campus, please visit their website at Widener.edu
We will not have a speaker for this meeting, as it will just be a time to catch up with old friends & possibly meet some new friends! We hope to see you there!
The next event is planned and we hope you can attend!!!
We will be renting a 50 person wagon at Linvilla on Tuesday, Oct 22nd! The wagon leaves PROMPTLY at 5:45. They ask that we show up 30 mins prior to the hayride to ensure everyone is on in time! I know my husband missed it the last time we did this event by literally a minute!
This event will be open to our birth-5 and 6-12 group.
We can only take the first 50 RSVPs. Please RSVP respectfully as the DSIG is paying $8 per person to attend, and other people would gladly fill the spots! 🍁🎃👻
Please email Kelsey at [email protected]. Kelsey will be in contact with the first 50! 😀
