Morgantown is a fairly small community to have one. We have lived all over the country and pretty much, one of the first things I do is find if the town has a Newcomers Club. We either read about it in the newspaper or we picked up a flyer at the visitors bureau. We always do that when we move to a new community. Kirkpatrick said members come and go, but currently there are about 100 members who receive the monthly newsletter.
Most members find out about the club through word of mouth.
Besides the monthly coffees and luncheons, Newcomers also has about a dozen special interest groups. There's a bridge club, a group for golfers, some who like to go antiquing, a book club and a gourmet group. Coffees are the first Wednesday of each month and usually at a member's home. Luncheons are usually the third Tuesday of each month and always at an area restaurant. All Rights Reserved.
