Kayaking and Biking

We kayak during the summer when it's warm. We welcome kayakers of all skill levels and schedule for Friday mornings. We try to visit a different location each week and mix it up between creeks, rivers and ponds. Coordinator:  Judy Larocque at 508-833-0374.

From April through September, we take a group ride once a month on one of the Cape Cod trails.  The group rides for 1-1.5 hours and then meets for lunch at a nearby restaurant.  Call for more details or check out the latest newsletter.  Coordinator:  Patty Williams at 508-888-4356.

Women's Book Clubs

There are day and evening book clubs.  The books we choose can be found in paperback or can be reserved at the library.  Many times we have a reader's guide to help us with the discussion of the book.  You are welcome to bring books for a "book swap" at the end of the meeting.  Afterwards, we enjoy coffee and goodies and a lot of talk.

The day book club meets the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 10 a.m. at a member's home unless otherwise indicated.  The books are selected from a recent "best seller" list.  Coordinator:  Maureen Burbic at 508-0833.

The evening book club meets the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 7 p.m. at a member's home unless otherwise indicated.  The books, times and locations are posted on the website.  Coordinator:  Sheryl Lajoie at 508-833-8577.

Ladies Brunch          

In the months of August, October, December, February, April & June, one of our members hosts a brunch at their home.   The December/Holiday Brunch and the August Brunch are open to all members of the club and occasionally we have Sunday Brunch at a local restaurant for all members.  Except for the restaurant brunch,  everyone who attends contributes to the meal with a dish which may consist of a salad, main dish, or dessert. These are always popular and well attended and the food is wonderful. We get a chance to socialize and even get a few new recipes.  Coordinator:  Patty Williams at 508-888-4356.

Gentlemen's Poker

Gentlemen's Poker meets every other Thursday at 7 p.m.  The coordinator is Charlie McCarthy.  If interested in joining, call Charlie at 508-420-9208 or email him at kc.mm@hotmail.com.

Ladies' Golf

In season, golfers at all levels are welcome to play every Tuesday at 3 p.m., arriving at 2:30p.m. to get times and set up.  We play at Holly Ridge Golf Club most of the time, but do try other courses sometimes.  Please let me know if you plan to attend any week so I can confirm where we are playing and that you have a partner.  Coordinator:  Lorraine Jablecki at 508-833-1077.

Girls' Night Out

This group meets one Thursday a month for a movie, followed by libations at a local restaurant.  The date coordinates with Gentlemen's Poker night.  Coordinator:   Kathleen McCarthy at kc.mm@hotmail.com.

Lunch Out

In the months of September, November, January, March and May, between noon and 2 p.m., a lunch is scheduled at a different restaurant followed by another activity such as shopping, sightseeing, a walk on a beach or a boat ride.  This activity is open to all members.  Coordinator:  Judy Larocque at 508-833-0373.

Mah-Jongg is played all year every Tues. between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. at the Sandwich Council on Aging. Players at all levels are welcome.  Coordinator:   Jennie Zantuhos at jzngz@verizon.net

Bridge

Couples' Bridge, under the leadership of Jean McCann, meets every 2nd Friday.  Call her at 508-888-3929 or email her at jeanmccann40j@comcast.net for more information.

Wine Socials

This is by far the most popular social activity. Members offer their homes to us for a night of wine or other libation, food and a lot of fun. The cost is $10/member or $15/guest (as space allows) for beverages and supplies provided by the hosts.  Those attending also bring either an hors d'ouerve or dessert, depending on what the hosts request. This is a wonderful way to relax and get to meet new friends or just spend time with old friends. Socials are typically held the 3rd weekend of the month, depending on the hosts.  Some are seasonally oriented (Halloween, December holidays). Check the latest newsletter for times and dates.  Call Coordinator Karen Juros at 508-362-2636 to join the fun or if you'd like to host a party.
