TWA - Feeling social


Our Social Committee is responsible for planning all sorts of extra activities for our members to enjoy outside of the projects we support. There is something for everyone and the committee aims to plan outings that all of our members can enjoy.  This year the number and variety of opportunities to connect and be social has been awesome! 

Do we love serving our community, of course. 
But do we also love getting together just to have fun, YES! 
Check out the impressive list of social activities that have been planned recently:

  • Monthly pre-meeting dinners at various local restaurants
  • Fall Euchre Tournament
  • Oktoberfest @ The Dakota Inn
  • Kris Kringle Market in downtown Rochester
  • High Tea @ The Townsend in Birmingham
  • Bunco at a member's home

These outings are planned and open to any members who would like to attend.  The number of members varies by activity and the goal is always to provide opportunities to connect with each other, try something new and have fun doing it.  Some future social activities may include: local bike trips, museum visits, and various public tours.

TWA BOOK CLUB

A number of women in the Troy Women’s Association have enjoyed gathering every other month to discuss a particular book.  Our members take turns hosting in their homes and providing the book selection.

We are not literary specialists.  Rather we are ladies who enjoy conversation and laughter.  Our personal book ratings and reviews often lead to discussions all over the map.  It’s fun!

Picking a book is not easy as each of us enjoys specific genres and many of our members are avid readers.  Reading is an adventure.  The unifying comment from the group is “I’m glad I read this book.  It’s one that I wouldn’t have otherwise selected.”

From historical fiction, classics, mysteries and true stories, 56 books have been read and discussed providing many hours of joy and friendship.
