At long last, COVID has loosened its grip and we are doing the first live Sugar Surfing Workshop since . . . forever, or at least since 2020. We hope you can join us for this 2 hour Workshop on June 11, 2022. It will be in Longview, Texas at the Pine Tree Church of Christ, 3221 Dundee Road in Longview, from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. It is a nice, large, comfortable venue that we have used before.
The cost to attend is only $5.00 per adult, children are free. As always we welcome the kids who have Type 1 diabetes as well as siblings, since they live with diabetes as well. We will not have child care for very small kids, but those who can pay attention (or be entertained) for two hours are welcome. We will have refreshments available.
For those of you who have joined Sugar Surfing since 2020, or have not attended a Workshop, this is a live presentation of the Sugar Surfing concepts with visual aids, by Dr. Stephen Ponder. Questions from the participants are welcome and add to the presentation. Dr. Ponder is currently updating the Workshop based on some new ideas he has come up with since the book was published in 2015. And who knows what funny hats he will wear? He has some new ones!
What is Sugar Surfing? It is a dynamic approach to diabetes management for adults and children with Type 1 diabetes, using data from CGM technology to better manage diabetes in the moment. Keep doing what you love by living better with diabetes. The Workshop is open to all people living with Type 1 Diabetes, their caregivers & medical professionals. So, feel free to invite the grandparents and other extended family, as well as your child's caregivers, teachers, and medical care team.
We are excited to be able to present this Workshop. Much thanks goes to Amber Hobbs and Longview Type One Diabetes Foundation who have made this possible through their hard work and dedication. We hope to see people from all over east Texas and the surrounding areas in attendance. Longview is not too far from Houston, Dallas, Shreveport, and Little Rock!
Registration for the Workshop is up and running. To register, go to www.sugarsurfing.com/longview2022. You will receive an electronic flyer when you purchase. No need to bring it with you; we will have a list of attendees. Please plan to arrive by 12:45 at the latest. June 11, 2002 from 1-3 pm in Longview, Texas. We can't wait to see you there!














































I love how this post captures the energy and “sweet ride” metaphor of sugar surfing it reminded me of how writing often feels like balancing motion and stillness, idea and shape. When I felt adrift in early drafts, I found that creative writing services can be like a gentle tide, guiding you forward, smoothing the narrative flow, and helping your voice ride the current of your own story.
This workshop sounds like such a valuable opportunity for families and individuals managing Type 1 diabetes. Clear communication really makes a difference in learning, just like when people choose to buy product descriptions online for clarity and impact. I’ve come across Paysomeone To being mentioned for that kind of helpful support, too.
Surfing through workshops and trying new methods always reminds me of late nights organizing thesis chapters expectations murky, transitions blurry. In those moments, Ranked Design felt like the map I hadn’t yet drawn: helping me stitch ideas together, keep flow deliberate, and let the final path emerge clear rather than just hopeful.
Attending the Live Sugar Surfing Workshop in East Texas was an eye-opening experience, offering practical strategies to manage blood sugar levels more effectively. While learning about maintaining focus and consistency in health, I realized similar dedication is needed in academics. Handling complex assignments can be stressful, and that’s when I discovered Academic Editors. Their Research Paper Editing Service in UK helped me refine my university work, ensuring clarity and accuracy. This support allowed me to meet deadlines confidently while enhancing the quality of my academic writing.
I enjoyed reading about the live Sugar Surfing workshop in East Texas. Your insights into glucose trends, mindful eating, and community support feel encouraging. While preparing for an online exam on nutrition science, I thought about how useful a manuscript proofreading and editing online service could be to refine my research write ups under tight deadlines. It reminded me that clear writing and strong feedback help bring out the best in one’s ideas, both in science and in storytelling.
