Over the years, NC FACES has enjoyed a number of fun outings and informational events. Each year, with parent assistance, we try to do the following:
-
NC FACES has quarterly meetings. Meetings are often part informational and part support. In addition, some meetings involve special topics with guest speakers.
- Food-free Easter Egg Hunt
- Food Allergy Awareness Week Advocacy
- Peanut/Nut-free Zone at the Durham Bulls baseball game
- Food-free Halloween Fun
In addition, we have had lots of other wonderful activities such a bowling outings, professional soccer games, special movie showings, Dream dinners, playdates, etc.
If you have ideas that you would like to see happen with NC FACES, send an email to ncfaces@hotmail.com
