    I have a class in Boca until 12:30, if coming late isn't a problem then we'll be there (by 1:15). Would like to bring my 9yr old daughter unless this is an adult only meet. Should we bring anything?

Who attended?

  • 50 attendees
    •  It was nice to spend the day with friends and to make a few new ones, too! 
    •  Wonderful people, terrific food. However, I would have preferred it to remain a loose, informal gathering so people could interact with one another. The "Circle" structure I found to be boring and restrictive. A very quick introduction of each person with a time limit of 1 minute would have been sufficient; we would have gotten to know who each person was and then we could interact with all. It reminded me of a 12 step program setup. There's nothing wrong with being Vegan and still having fun, and even getting silly. 
    •  Wonderful to catch up with old friends & meet so many compassionate vegans! Thank you to the Katz family for your generosity & hospitality! 
    •  I was actually not bored by other people talking about themselves =)
