Thanks for the Facebook link but seems to be for babies and toddlers. Anyone got school age children?

Hello All, i have just found this site and the forum and am amazed that I immidiately found some people who live in Okotoks! We are moving over in 3 weeks time and are getting very excited, although most of my time is currently taken up with packing!

I would love to join you ladies for coffee once we are in situ; we have a 10 year old daughter who no doubt will be eager to make new friends. Hopefully see you all very soon:)

Hey
Mine are 4 and 6 - both boys so would be good for them to meet other kids.

Beer and BBQ sound good

Mine is a 7 year old girl - she will be going to Dr Morris Gibson - and we are coming out on the 19th!

Let's make sure we all meet up at Sams (hope you don't mind)

Hi
We are hoping that our son will go to Dr Morris. We are just having trouble finding a rental at the moment and they wont accept him without proof of address as they are so over-subscribed!!

Hi Simone - Welcome to the forum, it would be great to have you at the coffee morning. We have daughters 10 & 12 so the kids can hook up to.

If you need some help finding a rental place give me a call, I know a couple of places in the DMG catchment area. I'll PM you my phone number. Sam

I don't mind at all, it will be great to get something together for the mums. You are all welcome to bring the kids too, it will be nice for them to meet and play together. Perhaps we could have a regular coffee meet for all newcomers past and present and perhaps we can organize an activity for the kids (cinema, ice skating, swimming, adventure walk down by the river??) Let me know what you think ladies.

There's a family I'd like to connect you with here in Okotoks, two boys, 3 and 5, so a close match I think. They've only been here a couple of months. Drop us a PM or email with your email address and I will contact them. They don't use this site much.

Oh and we'll fire up the BBQ too! (And to the Ross Family, as you know, your chap has already sampled the delights of the Alberta Beef here at ours!)

Eamonn.

Have you tried looking at www.rentfaster.ca for rentals? That is where we found ours. (Hope I can put this website address here)

Good luck with the search - lots of people on here will be able to help or you can PM me to ask about our experiences of trying to find rentals.
