The YWCA Darien/Norwalk Newcomers Club plans to host its January Wine & Cheese Ladies Night on Thursday, Jan. 12, at 7:30, at Equinox Fitness Center in Darien. New town residents who are interested in joining the YWCA are welcome to attend this event which is also open to current YWCA Newcomers Club members.

This is the first year that the YWCA Newcomers Club will host a Wine & Cheese Ladies Night at Equinox. Historically, the Newcomers have held this event in both October and January at a member's home. Newcomers co-chairman Jessica Reinckens is excited about the event, "We're excited to have this popular event at a different, fun location and are grateful that Equinox offered to host."

The YWCA 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, ladies nights, volunteering opportunities and couples events including Gourmet and Winetasters groups. "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 Sara Parent, YWCA member.

If you would like to attend the Newcomers Wine & Cheese Ladies Night, RSVP by emailing newcomers@ywcadariennorwalk.org.
