Seasonal Parties
Seasonal parties are a family event and often held in community parks or club houses. They usually include a craft activity and loads of snacks from participating moms. Recent annual parties have included Valentine's Day, Spring Fling, Summer Beach Bash, Halloween, and Winter Holiday. In addition we have a couple of parties just for moms such as the Annual Cookie Exchange to kick off the holiday spirit, the Annual Member Appreciation Dinner, and the Mother's Day Brunch to celebrate just being the great Moms we are!
