Website Reboot

In order to make our group more functional for our members, we have updated our website to include the following:

The About Us section gives an overview of our group introduction and rules.

The Admin Team page introduces and describes the roles of our various administrators.

You can click on Upcoming Events to see our planned events through August in one list.  Events that are indicated with "TBA" will occur on either of the days listed.  Admins will decide in advance or will create a poll within Facebook to complete details for these events.  The Calendar page has a link to our group Google Calendar with details about the events including time, location, and nature of event.  Event invitations to details of the event and discussion with attendees will continue to take place within Facebook.  This decision for the calendar was made in order to help members plan in advance.  The admin team will meet again during the summer to plan out the following 6 months of events.

Showcasing Bluegrass Working Moms will be a new feature for our community.  Details and applications can be found here.

If you would like to help plan an event for the group, you may contact any event director.

We are so glad that our community has continued to maintain the same atmosphere it had when it was small.  The members of our group and their interactions are what make it a great resource for our local working mothers.  Thank you for the commitment to understanding and supporting those of us who understand the working mom struggle.

Look for updates to our website and Facebook page coming in the near future!
