The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club begins their silver anniversary season on Thursday, September 15 at noon with a delicious Welcome Back potluck luncheon in Reynard Hall at the Mattapoisett Congregational Church, 27 Church Street. Please join us as our guest for a delicious, informal luncheon while you chat with new acquaintances and renew old friendships. Learn about upcoming programs and small-group activities.
Two months before the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, the women of Mattapoisett came together to form the Woman’s Club. Throughout the last eight decades, the club members have been active in every aspect of life in America. Plans are underway to celebrate the Club’s 75th anniversary on October 20 with an anniversary tea including displays of memorabilia from the 1940s through the present day.
In November, the speaker will discuss creating a sustainable lifestyle that takes a lifelong commitment – to learning, experimenting, exploring and committing to increasingly sustainable practices.
December is an informal gathering where members relax a bit to holiday music during the hectic season of giving.
January’s program focuses on the neighboring town of Marion: its history and some of the Town’s prominent women.
In February, Natural History and how it ties to humankinds’ relationship within our local coastal community/environment will be the topic.
March’s speaker will give an overview of state parks and recreation areas near Mattapoisett and a little further away. From Cape Cod to the Berkshires, the Department of Conservation and Resources (DCR) has parks and trails for everyone.
