Hope to meet everybody!

I just got banded on December 19! I live across from the woodlands and really hope to be at the meeting so I can meet some new people that are experiencing some of the same things I am. :)

Hi lmh011--

The age depends on the group that is there. We have a few people that are in their mid-to upper 20s, I am 35, and the age goes I guess around upper 50's early 60s. Honeslty I haven't paid much attention to age.

All I can say is I think all the people in the group are a great bunch of people. And I can also add, no one is there to judge anyone, only support. Please drop by and find out for yourself. I can promise great conversation, support, and laughter.

Your welcome to PM me if you have further concerns.

Melissa Lea

Lizrbit --I'm afraid I won't be heading to Galveston anytime soon. I'm sure there are other Galveston bandsters out there. Start a new thread and look for All Galveston Bandsters.

Best wishes with you and your journey.

Lizrbit --you may want to go to the yahoo groups to Houston Area Bandsters. You may have more response there. It's a very large group of people around they Houston area. There are multipe support groups through them.

Good luck!
