The Simsbury Newcomer’s Club is a non-profit organization located in Simsbury, CT. We are here to bring our community together by giving newcomers to our town an opportunity to meet and develop friendships with others who live in the area.
But please, don’t think that just because you’ve lived in Simsbury for a long time (perhaps youre entire life) that you cannot (or should not) join our organization. Not only will your knowledge of the area and your longtime connections help those who have recently moved here, but it will give you the opportunity to help your community, and help to expand your circle of friends in the area.
What We Do
As a group, we have monthly activities which you and your family can join, so you can interact with others in the area, as well as enjoy (and advance) your own interests. From small gatherings to go see a newly released movie or to talk about a new book, to our annual Holiday party and Spring Luncheon & Silent Auction. We encourage our members to learn about their city, its culture and lifestyle, and to develop friendships by sharing interests and hobbies with each other.
Membership
Membership is open to those who would like to meet new people who may share their interests, and who want to learn more about the area. We offer a wide array of activities, both during the day and in the evening hours, to provide a social outlet for people who are new (or those who still feel new) to the area. We even offer very affordable babysitting services for those moms who need it for these events – or for the parents who need a “night out”.
Membership is only $24.00 per year – we are a non-profit organization, but this fee helps to defray the cost of running the club. First-time guests are more than welcome to attend one of our monthly activities at no cost, so you can “check us out” prior to making a commitment to join.
So please, peruse the site – we hope we have piqued your interest! – and should you feel so inclined, check out our schedule of events to see when you can join us in the fun! It doesn’t matter if you’re a Simsbury veteran or newbie – everyone is welcome.
