Many of our activities at the meetings help members to get to know one another. Some of the activities we’ve enjoyed include a family potluck picnic in the summer, a year end party in May, a weekend getaway to Winnipeg to shop and attend a dinner theatre, progressive supper and a Death by Chocolate membership night. As well, we have holiday parties which help to recruit new members. Developing lasting friendships is a wonderful benefit of belonging to the Women of Today. Don’t think of us as strangers, just friends you haven’t met yet!
