Sneak Peak!

The Steering Team had an awesome retreat planning the upcoming MOPS year. We have some awesome meetings in store.

Another exciting part of MOPS is "5th Wednesdays." You think we could come up with a cooler name than that, but well, it's what it is, the 5th Wednesday activities! This year we have three 5th Wednesdays with the first one coming right up on September 30th.

I'm excited to announce our MOPS group will be heading over to the Coppal House Corn Maze in Lee, NH. Every year the Coppal House has a professional company come in a cut out a design in their corn field. This year the design will be a skunk and flower. Througout the maze are mailboxes that have questions regarding skunks and flowers and if you choose the correct answers, you'll get the correct directions through the maze. There is usually a "hay bale maze" too for the little tykes to explore.

The maze is jogger stroller friendly. Afterwards we can pick a pumpkin or other fall decorations.

Hope to see you there! And don't forget, the first MOPS meeting of the year is September 2nd at 9:30 am. Be there!

MOPS Steering Team Retreat

This weekend the Dover MOPS steering team will be traveling to Rochester, NH for our annual retreat to plan our up coming year. This is a time for us to grow as a team and pray for guidance from God to do what he wills with our MOPS group.

Laura and I have a lot of fun stuff planned! Friday night we will spend most of the evening planning and we'll end the evening with a movie or what ever tickles our fancy. Saturday we will continue planning for the day and make our MOPS t-shirts. That evening we will head out to the Olive Garden for dinner (yum!).

We have a ton of new ideas to bring to MOPS this year. Please pray for us that we will do what God wants us to do.

Don't forget to mark the first MOPS meeting of the 09-10 year on your calendar! See you September 2nd at 9:30 am!
