The men learn to cook do the dishes the ladys learn to fish and live with out make up.We all learn to be kids again. We had our first business meeting for it tonight and I for one am ready for sunshine.We build a realy big fire and have a sound system with 3 wireless micks so every one can hear.

Our home groups rarely put on functions.We have a standing sub-committee that does that. Right now we are a fund raising committee. We have so many functions coming up. We plan 2 a month.

Talent Shows, open mic nights, roller skating, bowling, picnics, campouts, dances,speaker jams, We are currently preparing for a "MISS-ter BCACNA Womanless Beauty Pageant" (guys dressed like girls) We have 10 contestants lined up so far. To keep it fair and give the women an opportunity to win a prize, we are planning the "IRON WOMAN COMPETITION" for this summer.

I love being involved with this committee. Especially when you are watching the younger addicts laughing and having fun.

I wish I was closer, or had money to come out. I love campouts and rafting trips.
