Kitsap/olympic Peninsula (wa) Gig (public Event) Tomorrow?

The wonderfully designed calendar on this website has an event listed for tomorrow:

"Our next meeting will be a picnic on June 27th in Sequim at the Sunny Shores Beach Club Cabana on Serpentine Ave. It is very easy to find and will be a wonderful venue for our gluten free feast and bright sunny day of friendship and food. GIG will supply the burgers, dogs and buns and everyone can bring a dish provided the complete recipe and ingredients are included. We make sure that no one is poisoned on our fun day. We have been having this picnic for a number of years in Bremerton and everyone loves it. It will be from 11:00am to 3:00pm and if anyone would like to come and talk Celiac Disease, gluten intolerance or gluten free diet, please come at 10:00am and I?ll be there. This is a wonderful facility right on the beach so bring beach shoes and stuff and friends and family and enjoy a gluten free party."

However, lacking details for the event, or any kind of contact information, I'm having trouble nailing down the specifics. An internet search for "Sunny Shores Beach Club" led me to believe such a place does not exist. Further investigation shows a "Sunland Golf and Country Club" near Serpentine Ave in Sequim, but I am looking for a way to verify that this is where the event is (after getting no answer at the country club).

I live in Seattle, and the above calendar entry made me think the picnic was in Bremerton "We have been having this picnic for a number of years in Bremerton and everyone loves it." which is only an hour away. Now reading it more carefully, it's apparently in Sequim. Which is two hours away, so I'd really like to verify its location before traveling that far. :)

The only other event close to me that I saw listed on this calendar was in Puyallup, and I decided not to spend over an hour in rush hour traffic to go.

I was only diagnosed a little over a month ago, and I was really looking forward to a gluten free picnic, and meeting some fellow Celiacs. So if anyone knows more information about this event, I would really appreciate it.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of support groups that might be closer for me to attend, I'd really appreciate that too. :)

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
