The Somers Women’s Club hosted the twice-yearly Crazy Whist card game today at Somers Town Hall. This old-time card game became popular in the late 1800s with women’s groups and the Somers Women’s Club has maintained the tradition throughout the years. We welcomed more than half of the Somers Women’s Club, several members of the Woman’s Club of Enfield, along with Somers and area residents. With a five dollar entry, members and guests enjoyed light refreshments consisting of a variety of finger sandwiches and side dishes along with an impressive dessert table and beverages including coffee, tea, and apple c***r. At 12:30 pm the games began under the direction of Somers Women’s Club president Mary. At the conclusion of the games the tea cup raffle drawings were held. The prizes ranged from seasonal decorative items to handmade jewelry, small kitchen appliances, and a LuAnn's Bakery & Cafe gift card. A door prize drawing was held and a top scorer gift basket was awarded. It was an enjoyable autumn afternoon spent in good company with good food and goodwill. This event was also a fundraiser which benefits the Somers Women’s Club scholarships and town project. It’s a time-honored tradition as we continue over 100 years of service to the community.

As we gathered for our October meeting, members of the Somers Women’s Club enjoyed social time and refreshments, with an autumn theme, provided by the hostess committee. We welcomed our guest speaker, Jessica Pardi of The Network Against Domestic Abuse, who spoke about the education and services The Network provides in our local communities. Then we presented her with hand-sewn comfort bears, made by club members, and also a $584 donation check, which was a combination of individual member donations and a match by the club. The comfort bears, the meeting program, and the donation to The Network were all part of our General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) International Day of Service project. After the meeting, comfort bears were also presented to the Somers Fire Department and the Resident Troopers Office/Somers Police to have in their ambulances and cruisers.

Following the program, we held our business meeting. We welcomed three new members, Margaret, Kathy, and Jill! They each received their membership pins and new member materials. During the meeting we discussed current and upcoming service projects, programs, and events including holiday events, a craft class, a trip, and the next book discussion. Our annual See’s Candies fundraiser was launched at the meeting and will continue through November 5. The next meeting of the Somers Women’s Club will be held on Thursday, November 5 at 1:00 pm in the Foundation Room of the Somers Congregational Church. Prospective members and guests are welcome to attend! For further information, contact us at [email protected].

The Somers Women’s Club supported The Network Against Domestic Abuse as well as the Somers Fire Department and Somers Police/Resident Troopers Office as part of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) International Day of Service. Each year the International Day of Service highlights a critical area of need. The focus this year is on helping to end domestic and sexual violence. The club planned a service project, a fundraiser, and an informative program to support the goal.

1) Led by our Arts & Crafts Committee, we joined together to sew, stuff, accessorize, and wrap 34 comfort bears, for children, to be donated to The Network and also to the Somers Fire Department and Somers Police/Resident Troopers Office to be placed in ambulances and police cars in town.

2) Through our Charitable Giving Committee, club members donated money for The Network and then the Somers Women’s Club matched donations up to $250. We presented a check for $584.00 to The Network for their work in prevention of domestic and sexual violence as well as support for survivors.

3) The Community Engager & Youth Educator from The Network was the guest speaker at our October 1 meeting. She provided an informative overview of the education and services provided by The Network. The donation check and several bears were presented by the club.

We joined other GFWC clubs across the country and around the world to support this critical area of need as we continue our tradition of over 100 years of service to the community.
