If you are a woman who would like to have more activities to choose from, a new Working Women’s Social and Recreation Club could fill the bill.
Organizer Monica Kriese say a number of women in the community have expressed a desire for a group or club that promotes activities without politics, bylaws or rules.
“Women in the area have been saying time and time again that they want to get out with other women, but it needs to work around their lives and schedules,” says Kriese. “There are also those that work but don’t feel comfortable joining a group that focuses on business owners or managers.”
“The club will take into account the difference in social and recreational needs for women with young children, empty nesters, single parents, low incomes – you name it, because you will each have a chance to suggest activities and help put it together,” says Kriese. “For example, if one of you wants to go snowshoeing one weekend, you send in the details and they are sent out to everyone in the club as an invitation to come out and join in.”
Or, suggests Kriese, women who work during the day, may want to suggest a “whine and wine” event at a local bistro.
“It will be your club and each of you has a say,” she adds.
The club is open to women living anywhere in the Shuswap. Go to www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/M7edIswc5deb36AP to express your interest and suggest activities.
