 Installation of 2012-13 officers
Welcome to the St. Paul MoM’s club. You can join the St. Paul area Mothers of Multiples club today and start meeting other mothers of twins, triplets, or higher-order multiples. We have monthly meetings as well as play dates, MoM get-togethers (without the kids) and family parties. We also have our semi-annual sale where members sell gently-used kids stuff and get first dibs at buying items.
New members are welcome to come to meetings or other events whenever your schedule permits. For more information on how to join the club, click on the “Join Us” tab on the left. And click here for more information about the meetings. The Spring Family Party is coming up in May. Club Members can watch for announcements on Big Tent with more details in the near future.
The monthly business meetings have come to close. There will be a potluck dinner on May 10th to wrap up the year and complete the installation process for the newly appointed executive board. Festivities begin at 7:00 PM and there will not be any small group meetings. Throughout the summer we usually continue to meet for MoM’s Night Out once a month.
When business meetings start up again in the fall, we typically start small group meetings at 6:30 p.m. The business meeting starts at 7:30 pm, followed by a program. And the night concludes with an optional MOMs Night Out at a nearby restaurant. Members are welcome to come to any portion of the night’s activities that suit your schedule, even if that’s just for an hour.
New this year, members attending the business meeting will get their name put in a drawing for a $10 gift certificate to the restaurant for that night’s outing.
We have members who live throughout the Twin Cities metro area, including St. Paul, Woodbury, Shoreview, West St. Paul, Oakdale, Cottage Grove, Stillwater, Lino Lakes, Minneapolis, Hudson, WI, and many other communities.
