Is there anyone is Fresno CA or Clovis CA?

I'm really getting the feeling I'm the only little person in Fresno CA. All I'm getting is invites for the Sacramento area, for which I cannot attend due to travel restrictions. I'm feeling really alone here, and I will never ever know another little person in my life.

WELCOME

Our chapter stretches throughout most of the Central Valley of California. We hope you enjoy traveling because our meetings and parties usually spread out quite a bit. This site offers you heart-warming and personal stories about our members so you may have a chance to get to know them better. Every quarter we distribute our newsletter so you will be sure to be informed on what's going on. This website will have many topics to choose from including medical articles, doctor-related info, kid's stuff, and much more. We hope you can participate with us, too. Our chapter is diverse and large which makes it to be very interesting and different than most. When you are visiting our area, please drop by an event and join in. We love to have members from all over the LPA family come by and say "hi." We will do our best to keep our events calendar up-to-date. Thanks for taking the time to visit our website. Enjoy
