* To provide a support group for mothers who choose to stay at home to raise their children;
* To provide a forum for topics of interest to mothers;
* To help children in the community;
* To perform at least one service project yearly helping needy children and/or families.
Principles:
* That women must be free to choose their personal path to fulfillment;
* That, for women who choose it, raising children is an important and fulfilling full-time job;
* That a family's decision for a mother to stay at home to raise children often involves considerable
financial sacrifice;
* That there is no right way to raise children, but our members have a common concern in raising
children in a healthful way.
Child's Play
We currently have three play groups; Bouncing Babes (0-18 months), Toddler Fun (18 months-3 years) and Preschool Play (3-5 years). Other activities for the children include; park playdates/picnics, stroller walks, Lunch Bunch, Storybook Cooks, and Krafty Kids.
We love taking the kids on new adventures. Some that we have done or are planning include; Fire/Police Stations, Kid City Museum, Southeastern Connecticut Children's Museum, Nature's Art, Autumn Hayride, Berry/Apple Picking, Corn Maze Walk, and Roger Williams Zoo.
MOMS Clubs
Our members share many interests and hobbies. Because of this, we have created clubs that allow us to share our ideas, talents and knowledge. Our clubs include; Scrapbooking, Book, Walking, Recipe Exchange, Gardening and Cross Stitching.
MOMS Night Out
Once a month we schedule a night out for moms. This can be a movie, dinner (restaurant or potluck), coffee & dessert, board games, a spa retreat, or casino night. We need time to have fun and relax, so we encourage members to leave the kids at home with Daddy.
Meetings
Our monthly All Member Social is held during the second week of every month. The executive board meets during the fourth week of every month. For more details about these meetings, please contact us.
Committees
As our membership grows, our needs as a club will grow too! There will be many opportunities for you to become an active member in one of our committees. Our current committees include; Welcome Committee, Sunshine Committee and Service Committee.
Community Service
Part of belonging to the MOMS Club of Norwich is our dedication to providing quality community service projects. We will select charities that benefit the mothers and children in our community. If you know of a worthy cause, please contact our Administrative VP.
