Activities & Events
Newcomers offers a number of regular activities as well as special annual events. These include women-member-only, couples, and family events. Our social planners have been very busy finding events for all interests! See below for "What's Happening?"
Regular Activities (women-only):
Book Club
Do you love to read? Join our lively book group the first Thursday of every month at 7:30 p.m. The group picks books twice a year, reads one book a month and meets at a different member’s home for discussion. We may disagree about the books at times, but always agree these are nights well-spent!
Girls’ Night Out/In
Can we count you in for a fabulous meal or fun night of games, heavy on grown-up conversation and light on cleanup? Join us for one or many of our uniquely planned outings. Dates and restaurants/venues vary, see below for our most recent calendar.
Play Groups
Are you looking for a new play group for one or more of your children? Play groups are a great way to make new friends, both for you and your kids! After joining Newcomers, play groups are coordinated through our membership web site.
Sunshine Club
Participating in Sunshine is a great way to help a fellow member in a time of need. Sunshine members are called on once or twice a year to prepare a meal for a fellow member following a birth, illness or other trying circumstances.
Couples Activities
Grab your partner and get ready for some fun! We plan a variety of couples nights throughout the year so you can enjoy a night out together without the kiddos and meet new people. Whether it's wine tasting, bowling or something else new and exciting, you're sure to have a good time! See below for our most current calendar.
