National Celiac Association San Diego
Support Group or Related Area Events
Our support group plans at least four educational & fun events a year, approximately one per quarter, for those with celiac disease or gluten related disorders and their families, all open to the public.
Upcoming Events in the Area in 2018:July 22, 2018 --Sunday, 12-3pm; Picnic and pool party for families and friends will be held in Encinitas. We will have a Q & A session with San Diego's top-notch pediatric celiac specializing dietitian Rosio Hernandez, MS, RD, CNSC, CDE. CLEC with Rady Children's Hospital. The event is geared toward adults and children of all ages.
JUST FOR KIDS 3-12: Enjoy our annual pinata fun for kids with gluten-free candies (we will publish the list of candies in advance and you can decide whether you would like your children to eat them in advance) and non-food treats, plus swimming, and lots of climbers and sand play available at the site. This event is always well attended, and we will have quite a few hard backed chairs and a couple of picnic tables available, but if possible we recommend bringing a few lawn chairs for yourself. Note, there is no lifeguard on duty. We would love to have your children come! For safety reasons, please keep in mind they must be supervised by a parent at all times, including when in the pool. We have no staff to supervise them. |
