For me! I'd like to hook up with a Director or above in the area I'll be moving to this summer. I'm actually moving to Redondo Beach, which is between LA and Long Beach. Anyone know of anyone?

Thanks!

It might be a bit father than you want to go but she might be able to let you know of someone closer. Let her know that I referred you.

HAHA! I do miss living there. There's nothing like the beach and watching the sun go down!

I miss it most, though, when I'm cleaning snow off my car! ;)
 
I'm going to have to go visit you out there!! Ohio...not that attractive, LA I will see you there! LOL!
 
I'm in Orange County, about 1/2 an hour. BUT there are about 6 directors that do a joint meeting the first Wednesday of every month in Seal Beach, not far from there at all. It would be fun to have you join us. Jacque is there as well as me, and you might find someone there that you would like to hook up with. You are always welcome with me, though, we have a lot of fun at our meetings.

That sounds awesome!!! Wow, 6 Directors? I'm gonna "assume" that since there are so many people in the area, it's no biggie that there are so many Consultants, right? Is there "competition" to get expos and fairs?

Anything else to share about the area? I can't wait! Feel free to email me at [email protected]
