Join us for our December monthly meeting at Refuge Wellness Collective in Rock Island!

We will have a large selection of carriers with us, but not the entire lending library, so let us know in advance if you are looking for a specific carrier or style so we can be sure to bring it.

At this meeting, you are able to look at and try on any of our carriers, get fit help with your own carriers, or check out/return carriers if you are a lending library member!

These meetings are FREE and open to the public! They are also family friendly, so please feel free to bring your kids!
