MOMS
Club of Roanoke-East, VA
Activities
MOMS Club
has many different types of activities.
Members often hold playdates in their homes, backyards, or at local
parks. The club also schedules
seasonal outdoor activities, such as pumpkin patch visits and picnics, and
special group events at places like the local bakery or the fire
station. We often get group rates on
tickets to children’s shows, festivals, and area attractions. With MOMS Club, you and your children will
go places and do things you might never have thought of otherwise! Though most
club activities are child-oriented, we do have family events and special
“mom” activities as well. We offer
personal interest and hobby clubs, and a monthly “Moms Morning Out”. One evening a month is “Moms Night Out”
where members get together at someone’s home, at a restaurant, or to do a
special activity. We also have
several family potlucks, picnics, and holiday parties throughout the year. Attendance
at MOMS club events is optional — do as much or as little as you like. Each activity has an RSVP person that you
will contact if you will be joining them.
You do not have to host any events, though at some point many members
have ideas they’d like to try. For moms
looking to give back, MOMS Club has a “Moms On the Mend” committee for
post-partum or ill members needing help with meals, shopping, and
childcare. Members can also help
coordinate community service projects and club events like the Easter Egg
Hunt. Examples:
Children
Children
from newborn through school-age are welcome at all MOMS Club events. Some activities may be geared towards
children of a particular age (such as crafts), but unless a playdate
specifies a certain age range (like “Under 2”), all are welcome and
encouraged to attend. Regardless of
whether or not children participate in the planned activity, both moms and
children will enjoy the outing and companionship. Breastfeeding
is welcome and supported for those who choose to do so. You are
responsible for your child’s safety and actions; children displaying
aggressive behavior (hitting, kicking, etc.) will be asked to leave the
event. |
