Activities


Monthly Meetings
Once a month, we all get together to go over club business; vote on important issues and any other topics that spark our members' interest.  We also invite interesting speakers to come and talk with us.  Many of them have come to us via recommendations from members, and all have been wonderful.  Children are welcome in the meeting room.  Anyone who is interested in our chapter is welcome to come to a meeting.

Playgroups
Playgroup are the most popular activity offered by our MOMS Club®.  Our current groups are broken down by age and generally meet at a member’s home or at a park or other activity when the weather permits.  Siblings are always welcome.  Although the purpose of a play date is to get the kids together to play, most moms will tell you that playgroups are as much for them and some days more, than for the kids.

Outings
Every month there are several no-cost and low-cost activities planned for moms and their children.  This is a great way for us to stay connected to each other and our community.  Outings may include meeting at a playground, apple picking or a tour of a local fire station.  We have pool parties at the town pool, go ice-skating and plan a monthly kid-friendly craft.

Cooking Club
Each month moms meet at a member’s home to share a favorite family dish and swap recipes.  We’ve tried soups, summer salads, desserts and Super Bowl appetizers.  We have a cookie exchange in December.  It’s a fun playgroup setting for children and everyone enjoys tasting new recipes.

Moms Night Out
This is a fun night out and a chance for the moms to get together! It's a great time to get to know other moms and enjoy adult conversation. Some of our past Moms' Night Outs include dinner, pedicures, movies, board games, Oscar’s night and much more. Any ideas for a Moms' Night Out are welcome!


Moms Book Club 
Do you enjoy reading?  Then the Book Club is perfect for you!  This club gives us a chance to read current books for pleasure and talk about something other than being mommies.  Once a month, we get together to discuss the latest book we've read.

Family Parties
Several times a year we have a seasonal party for families.  In the fall we host a Halloween party complete with costumes and trick-or-treating.  Our holiday party includes a book exchange.  Summertime brings a family picnic and BBQ.  All parties include delicious snacks, seasonal crafts and fun games.  It's a great time for Moms and Dads to get to know each other and the kids to have lots of fun!

Service projects
Each year we choose a projects to help needy mothers and children in our community. For example, we donated food, supplies and toys to the Ronald McDonald House at Albany Medical Center and toys to the Schenectady City Mission for parents who could not afford holiday presents.


Sunshine Committee
Remember those first weeks home from the hospital with a new baby?  Wouldn't it be nice to have dinner delivered to your door?  With Sunshine Committee we do just that.  Any mom in need of assistance can sign up for help with meals, baby-sitting or errands.
