EVENTS
Although our children attend most events with us and many events are children-focused in their content or theme, the objective of the club is really to bring together local moms and provide support. It is a place to connect and share without judgment.
In addition to our monthly meeting (Plan & Play), as a group we plan weekly events, one MOMS Night Out (MNO) per month (child free), a minimum of two service projects per year, and attend annual events such as the MOMS Club International Convention held in NJ. We also have created our own annual traditions such as Halloween Trunk-or-Treat, Easter Egg Hunt, and trip to the Land of Make Believe.
Here's a sampling of the type of events you can expect:

Activities
Another important aspect of our club is our Sunshine Club, which reflects our mission of supporting one another. Activities in this area include:
All of our members participate in the planning of events and we're always up for trying a new activity! For the privacy and comfort of our members, we communicate through a private Facebook page and limit participation in the majority of events to current members. The exceptions to this are our Plan & Play meetings, open houses, and publicly held meet-ups (e.g., at a local park or playground). We encourage you to attend these events, which are chances for you to get a better sense of the club. As a prospective member, you may attend up to two of these events before deciding whether you'd like to join.
