• YWCA has new programs to help girls
Current YWCA Newcomers Club members are required to RSVP on the YWCA Darien/Norwalk website for these events at ywcadariennorwalk.org. New Darien residents who are interested in attending these events are requested to purchase Newcomers Club membership at the YWCA Darien/Norwalk for the 2012-13 membership year by visiting ywcadariennorwalk.org or by stopping by the YWCA Darien/Norwalk office at 49 Old Kings Highway North (next to the Darien Ice Rink).
The YW’s Newcomers Club is designed to help women who are new to the community to quickly feel at home. There are plenty of opportunities to make new friends through activities including informal playgroups, a monthly book club, volunteering opportunities, ladies nights out, Gourmet and Winetasters groups for couples, and the annual Newcomers Fall Party for couples which will be held September 29th at the Darien Historical Society.
“When I moved to town, everyone told me to join the YWCA Newcomers Club and that’s how I made my best friends here,” said the incoming YWCA Newcomers Club President Carlyle Upson.
