Anyone from Detroit, MI?

Hello All!
I am a diabetic from Detroit Michigan and new to this site. I just wanted to know if there were any meet and greets here!

Or maybe I should start one?

Smiles,

Hi Lisa, I don't remember a Detroit member, but someone is in Michigan. I think it might be Lizzy. We are planning an Ohio M&G at King's Island, you are welcome there?

You can start one or come have fun on Sept. 1st at Kings Island. If anyone needs hotel info just let me know and I can find the local ones with some good deals.

Hi Lisa, I am from Onsted MI which is about 1 1/2 hours west of Metro Airport. I just had a picnic at my house on July 29th and had a good turnout. Wish you would have been on here before that. There were a couple people from the Detroit area here. If you start a Meet & Greet in the area I will be there if possible. There is a ADA Expo in Novi on Sept. 15th I plan on going to.

Hello Michiganders!

I am glad to see that there are a few in my area! I am anxious to get out however we have been having major problems with the van. It is a 1995 and it's slowly leaving us!

I do want to look into events in the future, I would like to meet you.

Thanks for the support talk again soon!

Hi, I'm from Ypsilanti before moving to Tennessee to find the cost of living cheaper.
