Kidlink is a playgroup created to bring together parents with young children, and to encourage the exchange of information and support among members. Kidlink is run by a strictly volunteer board, elected through the membership on a yearly basis.  Most Kidlink members live in the communities of Carmel Mountain Ranch, Mira Mesa, Poway, Rancho Bernardo, Rancho Penasquitos, Sabre Springs, San Marcos, Escondido, or Scripps Ranch.  Field trips are usually planned for these areas or can vary depending on trip location.

A Bit of KIDLINK History

 Kidlink has been around since 1989.

Kidlink was originally called “Parents in Harmony”, a trade name registered in March 1989, which we were required to pay for after three years of use.  Although documents were drawn up in 1992 to establish the legal use of this former name, in February 1993 we became Kidlink.

The name Kidlink was registered with the City of San Diego as a non-profit group in February 1993 and this registration is renewed every 5 years.  Our most recent renewal was in January 2003. 

The first bylaws were developed using “The Amended Bylaws of the Philippine Independent Catholic Church” as a guideline.  There is a copy of these bylaws in our files as well as a copy of the first Kidlink bylaws.  This was about the time that the group first had official board members and followed a budget and financial guidelines.

A few more interesting changes over the years:

·    In 1991, there were seven people on the “advisory Board” including a dad serving as “Dad’s liaison.”  Today the board consists of 14 positions, although the Dad’s liaison no longer exists.

·    In September 1991 a couple’s night out was introduced.  Since 2000 this event has been scheduled roughly 3 or 4 times a year.

·    In 1991 there were approximately 60 families in Kidlink.  In 2001 we finished the year with 73 members, and 2004 with 43 families. 

·    In January 2005 a new website was developed.  We now have our own domain name, and we are registered with Google and Yahoo to be included in their search engines.

·    Up until May 1994, there was only o
