My best friend and first recruit is moving the end of March to Colorado Springs, CO. They are a military family stationed out of Tampa and I am trying to find someone for her to connect with out in Colorado.

Our director and advanced director both said they would find someone but it's been a couple of months of her asking and they haven't found anyone.

Any help greatly appreciated :)
 
I sat next to a gal at Spring Launch from Colorado Springs. I will PM you with her info. She is a consultant but at least it would be a contact for a bigger group.
 
Hi, I'm an army wife living on Fort Carson in Colorado Springs. I have just recently connected with a group that has invited me to join their meetings for hospitality. I am also hoping to be a director myself in the next few months - my team is growing in the area - my other recruits are out of state from me. I'd be more than happy to talk to her. Since she's coming from Florida, I assume she's air force so she'll be based off of Peterson. I was just over there today. I'm starting to get to know the area pretty well, so I'll be more than happy to help her. You guys can email me - [email protected]

Thank you both so much! Sharon, I'm going to give her your e-mail if that is ok. They are actually army, I can't remember the exact reason they got stationed here but they were both oiriginally from here so it made all of us happy. :) Also, my daughter birthday is the same as your sons :) Except she was born in 2009. Thank you both so very much!
 
My NED lives in Colorado Springs currently, but is moving to California by June. Let me know though if you haven't connected with anyone, and I can give you her info.
