Annual Thrift Shop Workday

Members volunteered to work at the Community Thrift Shop in Midland Park on November 14th. Working in two shifts, they tagged and hung newly donated items from the public to ready them for sale. Our club suports the Thrift Shop with our own donations as well with volunteer hours. If you’d like to donate gently used clothing or household items, bag your donations and mark them with the #39 and head to 85 Godwin Avenue (down behind the Kings Shopping Center) on a Monday morning beteween the hours of 9 and 11.

Pickleball!

We’ve begun to pickle! Our first official foray into learning and playing the game was on November 4th at Down Town Sports Club in Mahwah. Twelve members attended and had such a good time that we’ve decided to make pickling a recurring event. Members are still welcome to join the group for next time to dink and ace with us!

Meet and Greet

On October 26th our Membership Committee hosted a Meet and Greet for prospective new members. Members invited friends to come to socialize, and many of our committee chairs were also present to welcome and connect with the prospective members. Our President, Alex Asteris, presented information about our club and our many upcoming events and everyone had a chance to view a video highlighting las year’s events. The evening was well attended and, as a result, we have 4 new members! Many thanks to Fran Nuzzi and Joan Clifford who organized the evening and to Alex Asteris who hosted.

Supporting our Community

Did you know that nearly 65% of our fundraising goes back to our local community? The remaining portions of our funds are channeled towards charities dedicated to the welfare of women and children. đź’Şđź’•

21st Annual Baby Shower

We are grateful to our members for their incredible generosity in supplying needed baby clothes, diapers, and many other items needed by Children’s Aid and Family Services and The Lighthouse Pregnancy Resource Center. We sorted and donated clothing from size 0-3 months to 5T, baby bath supplies, formula, pacifiers, board books, small toys, diaper cream, blankets, bottles, and many boxes of diapers and wipes. We filled two carloads with the donations and our hearts were happy to help!
