WELCOMING WOMEN TO BEAUTIFUL NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE
President’s Message- May, 2025
Welcome Spring and Sunshine!!!! We have certainly had a long winter and a slow start to spring, here in our beautiful NOTL.
May brings us an important event for our Newcomer’s Association – our Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on Wednesday, May 21 at the Community Centre. Doors open at 12:30 pm, the meeting begins at 1 pm and our Guest speaker, comedian Kate Hingston, will follow at 2 pm.
Our AGM is when your Board gives you an overview of the year’s activities, presents our Financial Report and when you elect your new Executive Board for the following year.
It’s a great opportunity to bring any questions, suggestions, comments you may have, to share with the Board and with other members. We look forward to seeing you all there. Please register on our website so we know numbers.
We are still looking for a couple of members to join the Executive Team
- Vice President (great learning opportunity)
- Secretary
- An assistant to help Karin with website and PR (another great opportunity to learn something new!)
So much happening!
If you love to bake, or want to get better at it, we have a Pastry Making class at the Niagara Food Company on Saturday, May 31. There are afternoon spots still available.
We also arranged a Tour of the McFarland House along with a "mini” high tea, on Tuesday, May 27 at 11 am. Check the website for details and registration. Act quickly – this event has a short timeline for registration.
June brings us two outings – The Grimo Nut Nursery Tour and the Niagara Falls Museum- “It’s a Party – Women’s clothing exhibit from the 50’s.”
Finally, we have our year end luncheon Wednesday, June 18 at Queenston Heights restaurant. We look forward to celebrating another successful year of our Newcomers Association with everyone.
Happy Mother’s Day to All – those with children, pet Mother’s, garden Mother’s and Mother’s of invention - Enjoy the Special Day!
Yours in friendship,
Megan Wood
President
NOTL Newcomers
The NOTL Newcomers Club is for women who live in the Ontario municipality of Niagara-on-the-Lake, which includes Old Town, Glendale, Queenston, St. Davids and Virgil. Our goal is to welcome women who are new to the town, and to help them meet one another and discover everything our unique town has to offer residents.
Membership is open to women who have recently moved to Niagara-on-the-Lake (NOTL) and also to women residents who have undergone a major change in their lives, such as retirement, and want to become more involved in local life.
As a social club our goal is to help women who are new to the Niagara-on-the-Lake area, or who have had a significant life change to make new friends and participate in fun social activities. Let's all hope that we will be able to have a busy year full of fun, social engagements and join a new interest group or participate in a new activity where we meet new people.
