Making new friends:

"I’ve written about this organization in the past, mainly because its mission is so easy to grasp: “To make friends and enjoy life.”

What could be finer? The best way to find out is to attend the Fox Valley Newcomers and Neighbors Club new member expo from 10 to 11 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 7, in the Carnegie Room of the St. Charles Public Library.

Initially started as a way for new residents to get to know the area and its people better, it has morphed into a place to build friendships. Most, but not all, members are retired and looking to get out and do things.

The organization's menu includes monthly luncheons, card games, special events, book clubs, and golf groups.

Information about fees and activities can be obtained by calling membership co-chair John Glenn at 630-330-7843 or visiting the website at foxvalleynewcomers.com .
