Adult Service Coalition Meeting for March

Once again, we are looking at a fairly challenging weather forecast.  With this in mind, we are CANCELLING the Adult Services Coalition meeting that was scheduled for Thursday, March 5 at Faith in Action’s offices at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Martins Ferry.  We will not reschedule this meeting but will just look forward to the regularly scheduled April meeting.
 
The next meeting will be held on Thursday, April 2 at 2pm at Faith in Action’s offices at St John’s Lutheran Church in Martins Ferry.  Please put this on your calendar.
 
Please also keep in mind that we are working on the 16^th Annual Caregiver Support Fair that will be held at the Ohio Valley Mall in St Clairsville on May 5 from 10 – 3.  We hope you will join us!  We have several registrations in already.  If you need a registration pack, please email me and I will make sure you get the Registration information!  We hope you will join us for this free event that offers the opportunity to network with colleagues, promote your business and get the word out to consumers about the services you offer.  Last year we had over 80 exhibitors.  We would love to be able to expand and offer even more information to our area consumers!  Registrations must be submitted by April 1.  We can work with you on the Certificates of Insurance so make sure to get the registration info to us by the deadline!!!!!  (Do not send your information to the Mall!)  Questions?  Email me or call me at 304 243-0996 or contact Jeanette Wojcik at jwojcik@faithinactionwheeling.org or 304 243-5420.
