There seem to be a lot of AP families around here (Portland area), just wondering if anyone else has found their way here yet...

I am originally from Oregon, down in Southern Oregon (small town called Glide) bot moved to WA 13 years ago. Still an Oregonian at heart!

Welcome!

I'm in Vancouver, WA just over the river. New here too and pretty active on MDC. Are you active with one of the PDX API groups? I wish there was one in Vancouver...

Hi! I'm in Portland (and a bit active on MDC ), haven't checked out any API groups in the area (there are two, I know), but it's on my To Do Someday list.

Just refreshing the Oregon thread...anyone else here from Oregon? I'm one of the leaders here, and just checking to see if anyone from the area is active on this forum!

Thanks Kelly!

I'm working Monday (and I'm a Nor'Easter), but I'm keeping an eye out for future meetings. We are an EC family and excited to see the "word" getting out there.

Private Portland, OR Forum!

Just wanted to post the word here that Portland API now has its online discussion forum here! Just go to the "support group" subforum and look for API of Portland, Oregon. Email me your username, and I'll get you added to this private forum.

We are excited to have our forum here and be a part of the larger API community!

Hi Sara, I'm glad you made it over here! And to answer your question...we're taking a little break from playgroups for a few weeks. We didn't have much turnout for the parks this summer, and it is hard to find a space for indoors. So we're going to re-evaluate in a few weeks.

Hi there! I'm in SW Portland. Health problems keep me from attending meetings and such. I've been a longtime member of the API Portland Yahoo group and I'd love to join the new forum here, but I'm having some trouble navigating and haven't been able to find my way there yet. Kelly -- could you please give me a pointer? My daughter is turning four next month, and I've found our local group to be incredibly helpful at many of the struggles we've had along the way.

Thanks!

Hi Aviva, I'm glad you're here on the new forum! So, if you go to the main forum page, you'll see several sub-forum headings as you scroll on down the page..."General Forums", "API Reads", "Principal Specific Forums", etc...

Find the one that says "API Support Group Forums". You have to scroll down the page a bit, and it's right below the sub-forum that you posted in here! If you click on it, you'll see lots of other support groups' forums there...just find the one that says "API of Portland Oregon"!

I hope this helps. If you're not used to a discussion forum like this, it can take some getting-used to. Here's a direct link, though, just in case:
