New Page Welcome

Hello Ladies of Mother's Corner! Welcome to the new blog for all IWC mommies :) This site follows the same idea as the original, just with a few extra tweaks here and there. Every post prior to this one was brought over from the previous site, so you shouldn't be missing any information. Feel free to look around and check out the different aspects of the blog. I'll be working on updates and trouble-shooting as we go along. Also please feel free to comment on anything and/or send along any news you'd like to add. Thanks!
:)

Youth Coaching

Here's an advert that might be of interest to you all:

Dear Parents!
Youth Coaching could make all the difference to a young person’s life!
Coaching is known as the most effective tool in personell development. My passion is to make coaching easily accessible for teenagers and young adults. They are in a very decisive phase of their life and can profit highly from a professional coaching.
In my youth coachings I apply effective, proven methods from the worlds of business and sports, tailoring them individually to the lives of young people. The basis for my coaching offer is my training with the Youth Coaching Academy (UK), my extensive experience with young people and my love and respect for them.
Interested?!
Here you can download my English youth coaching flyer:

Saskia's Welcome

(Saskia's Welcome, May 2009)
Welcome to the IWC Mother's Corner Blog! We have been really behind the times, relying on the Yahoo Group for all of our communication needs. While it works fine as a listserv, its website leaves a lot to be desired, and for that reason I'm going to try and move us over to this blog. At the moment, it's not password-protected because I want to just try it out the easy way and see what kind of reception it gets. Please comment and let me know what you think. The advantage of a blog is that posts can be "labeled", which allows them to be sorted. An index will be automatically created, so information can be easily found. For example, if someone posts about a gynecologist they like/don't like, the post will be labeled "doctors". By clicking on the "doctors" link, the blog engine will automatically bring up all posts with that label.

Anyone in the MC will be able to post directly to the blog, or you can send your posts to me. Posts can contain information or just thoughts for reflection. They can also contain questions, and other MC members can comment and give answers.

Please let me know your thoughts!
I'll be posting some actual information soon :)
Saskia,
MC Coordinator

Bavaria Filmstadt

This might be a fun outing for families with older kids or at least someplace to send your visitors. It has English tours during the main season at 1pm (probably a bad time for those of us with little nappers!)

Swimming/Skiing Lessons

There is a swimming/skiing school in Ismaning that offers various swimming courses all year long, especially during the school holidays. And the website is in English! It's not in perfect English, but hey, they try, and you get the gist.
