Would you like to serve your community, make new friends, develop leadership skills, and have fun doing it?
Learn more about the Clearwater Junior Woman's Club here on our website, or attend one of our regular meetings. You'll meet current club members, enjoy refreshments, and learn about how we help our community and what it means to be a clubwoman. You can become part of a tradition that goes back to 1889 when the General Federation of Women's Clubs was formed, and help shape that tradition to match the interests and lifestyles of women today and in the future.
Whatever your interests and experience, there are club activities for you... or you can start your own! We encourage our members to identify needs in the community and organize projects to address them. If you already have some ideas, you're sure to find plenty of willing helpers among fellow club members.
Please contact us by email (info@ClearwaterJuniors.org) or telephone (727-723-0888) if you would like more information, to receive a sample copy of our club newsletter, or to find out about additional club activities on our calendar. You are also welcome to join us at any of our monthly meetings or other club functions. Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month, February thorugh November, except May, July, and August. See the meeting information box at right for meeting times, location, and directions.
