Welcome Newcomers - Sundial Bridge with text
We Would Like To Meet You!

The Newcomers Club of Redding . . .

The Redding Newcomers Club is a non-profit women's organization whose objectives are to welcome newcomers, as well as residents, who are not so new to the area. We provide social activities to help members become acquainted with the community and with each other. At present, there are over 400 members with club activities for individuals and couples. The number of current members and the variety of sponsored activities attest to the success of the Club.

HOLIDAY SEASON UPDATE



Christmas Boutique - we raised $2100 in December at our annual event.  Funds will be used to send a child to camp, for summer memberships at the YMCA for "Kids at Risk," to help fill tote bags with gifts for children at the Good News Rescue Mission and NVCSS, and for our Golden Umbrella Christmas Party.

Golden Umbrella Christmas Party - we sang Christmas songs accompanied by Karen McIntyre on the guitar, shared gifts with 65 seniors, and enjoyed pie BEFORE lunch at the Golden Umbrella Senior Day Care Center.  As always, we dressed for the occasion in reindeer antlers!

Christmas Dinner Dance - 160 (our largest attendance ever) had the dance floor shaking to the sound of the Lou White band, took a chance to win one of the wonderful prizes (a wine basket, Lithia auto detailing, Macy's gift certificate, gift from Trader Joe's, and more,) and dined at whimsically decorated tables. 


              

ONE CAN AT A TIME

Food Pantry Donations


Our food donations made a huge difference last year --- we would like to continue helping hungry children and families that depend on a bit of help from food pantries at the end of the month.  In December we shared bags of food with the Sequoia Middle School Food Assistance Program.  In January we will donate to either the Good News Rescue Mission or People of Progress. If you wish to participate, please bring a can of food to the January General Meeting.    Brown paper bags and plastic grocery bags are also needed.
