Our Goal: 300,000 Steps in 30 Days

That’s an average of 10,000 steps per day. You don’t have to hit 10,000 every single day—the goal is to reach 300,000 total steps by the end of the challenge.

How to Join:

To participate, you’ll need to download StepsApp on your phone and create a FREE account.

StepsApp Challenge Invite Link

Please create your account and connect your step tracking before the challenge begins on September 20. The App is completely free. Once you create an account it will prompt you to create a premium account, and you just need to X out of that. You can reply to this email if you have any issues with setting up the account.

Then join us for our Kickoff Walk on September 20 to get those first steps in and officially start the challenge! ‍

Let’s see how many steps we can rack up together!

Cheers,
Petaluma Mothers Club

Family Swim at La Petite Baleen (09/26/2026)

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 21:00:00 GMT

Join us for a special PMC-exclusive Family Swim at La Petite Baleen! This is a wonderful opportunity for families to enjoy the pool together in a safe, welcoming environment while helping little ones build confidence in the water through play.

During Family Swim, a Water Watcher will be stationed on the pool deck to help monitor the pool, and an Advice Teacher will be in the water to offer guidance, answer questions, and share helpful swim tips with parents as your children explore the water. Families will also have access to goggles, fins, tubes, toys, and other fun pool equipment to make the experience even more enjoyable.

Family Swim Guidelines:
• An adult must be in the water with all swimmers at all times.
• One adult may supervise up to two children.
• Maximum of two adults per family.
• Swimmers under age 3 must wear a reusable swim diaper. La Petite Baleen recommends the Happy Nappy swim diaper, available on Amazon and at La Petite Baleen.

Whether your child is brand new to the water or already loves to swim, this is a fantastic chance to practice water skills, play together, and get to know other PMC families. Space is limited, so be sure to reserve your spot early!

September Member Social (09/27/2026)

Join us for this month’s PMC Book Club gathering! We’ll meet at Crooked Goat on Sunday September 27th at 7pm to discuss “Lady Tremaine" by Rachel Hochhauser – a dark, feminist reimagining of Cinderella that tells the story from the “wicked” stepmother’s perspective, exploring motherhood, survival, female strength, and the secrets lurking behind the fairy tale.

Whether you read every page, skim the ending on your way over, or just want to listen in, all are welcome. Didn't read this months book? That's totally fine! Feel free to discuss any book you're currently reading. Come enjoy great company, thoughtful discussion, and a relaxed evening out. The book club leader, Courtney, will be at the bar to greet you!
