As our year winds down for 2025, I want to personally thank all our members for their support and encouragement for an incredibly successful year. After losing one-third of our membership, we brought our numbers to over 450. The activities, whether tours, meals, trips or cultural outings, were so well planned and varied to suit all interests. The speakers were informational and essential to the knowledge of our area. Thank you to Ron for providing such a variety and depth of individuals to impart their vital information.
Thank you to all those who volunteered to act as Activity Leaders, as well as those members who took on the tasks of coordinating Ladies Lunches, Member Dinners, Men’s Breakfasts, including Doris, Bridget and our wonderful Activities Director, Joan Phillips.
Our club would not exist as it does without the volunteers who allow our club to function so seamlessly and with such a positive effect on our members. We will always need leadership and for members to step up to make the club work for everyone. Please be mindful of ways you could help to make the North Brunswick Newcomers Club a place of welcome and fun for everyone.
Please remember to sign up for the Spring Fling Celebration if you have not done so. It is a wonderful time and a way for us to give back and enhance our community through the funds that we raise at the party! The list of raffle baskets and Silent Auction items is extensive and exciting. Many of our local restaurants and businesses have given gift certificates for a variety of goods and services. Some of the Silent Auction items are: Handmade Quilt by our member Polly Dombrowski, Wall Art from Luxe, Cape Fear Adventures, Tickets to Thalian Hall Main Attractions, Opera House Theatre Tickets, Magnolia Greens Golf, Trips by Patty, Best Western and many others.
I hope to see as many as possible at the Spring Fling Celebration, not only for the food and fun, but to also hear an incredible presentation from Gareth Evans, Executive Director of the Bellamy Mansion on the “Rich History of Wilmington”. Space is limited and the deadline to register is this Friday, May 30th. See you there!
