BCC Events/Meetings
Our meetings and events are open to the gluten-free community, BCC members and non-members. BCC member-only events will be listed as such. Most meetings and events are FREE to attend, though we may take donations to help offset costs. (This is another reason we ask guests to join as members). Next Meeting
The next regular BCC meeting is Wednesday, February 15, 2012, at 6:30 p.m., at Left Hand Niwot Grange. This is our first meeting of 2012, and a great time to pay this year's membership dues of $20.00. Bill Eyl, the former President of the Celiac Sprue Association (CSA, our parent group) and a member of Boulder County Celiacs, will be speaking with us about the latest information pertaining to celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis straight from the 34th Annual CSA Conference “Change the World for Celiacs” held in September, 2011 in San Diego, California, in conjunction with Columbia University.
New this year: Informal get-togethers throughout the month. What a great way to meet BCC members, make friends, get support, meet families with GF children, express ideas and frustrations about GF-living, ask advice, brag about a delicious recipe! Join us on Saturday February 25, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. at Red Frog Coffee, located east of Main Street in Longmont in the Harvest Junction shopping development. Everyone welcome! (Cash bar.)
