There are no upcoming meetings since Margaret Auld-Louie no longer has time
to run CAAMB. If you would like to take over running CAAMB and planning
meetings, please contact Margaret:
Margaret@OptimumChoices.com.
We have formed a Yahoo Group called COAAMB for members to communicate with each other.
Meeting information will also be available on the group calendar. Please join
our group if you are a professional, student or teacher practicing animal
massage, bodywork or energywork. The Yahoo Group is COAAMB because the "CAAMB"
name was already taken on Yahoo.
