Welcome from the BWC |
|
Greetings from the Branchburg Woman’s Club! Founded in 1960, our club is a member of the New Jersey State Federation of Women's Clubs and the General Federation of Women's Clubs. The BWC is a non-profit organization of women who want to help the community and participate in fun, creative, and educational activities. As one of today’s modern women, you may think that your life is too hectic to consider becoming a BWC member. However, even if you only have some time now and then, you can help yourself and the community as a valued club member. Consider how nice it can be to enjoy opportunities for creative and educational enrichment while building friendships along the way. |

A look at our membership will show that even busy women find participating in club activities worthwhile. As many find, it’s a way to feel more a part of the community, meet new people with similar interests, and learn new things. Club activities have evolved along with the interests of the club members. The club has extracurricular groups, called departments. Some meet in the daytime and some meet in the evening. Activities may range from crafts, gourmet food appreciation to film and book discussions. New departments can be created as needed. Fun day trips, evenings out, and special social events add to the club experience. |
|
Meeting from September through May, typically on the third Thursday evening of the month, the club’s general membership meetings begin with a guest speaker or an activity. Then there are refreshments, followed by a club meeting. Consider coming to a meeting or two as our guest and bring a friend! Membership inquiries are especially welcome from residents of Branchburg and nearby towns (for convenience of members traveling to meetings). Learn how you can become a valued member of our dynamic and diverse group of women volunteers by joining the Branchburg Woman’s Club.
