INTEREST GROUPS IN NOTL
Covid Update: January 1, 2021
Most groups are unable to meet at this time; however, a small number have been able to adjust and connect through various internet options. If you have not heard from your convener, please contact her to check the status of the group at this time.
Joining and Interest Group is a wonderful way to get to know people in NOTL.
Groups of Newcomers with an interest in common get together regularly to enjoy themselves, share enthusiasms, skills, and - most importantly - become friends.
There are currently over 15 interest groups in NOTL Newcomers. Once you become a Club member you will have access to a list of groups and their conveners through the website MEMBERS section. Then you are able to find out more about any group by contacting the convener. You can join as many groups that are currently open as you like. Most have no fee to participate.
Are you looking to join an interest group but the one you are interested in is full?
We encourage the creation of new groups to accommodate interested members; however, all groups must have a volunteer group convener in order to get established. Think about something you enjoy such as: hiking, photography, bowling, board games etc. We would love to have new group conveners step forward so that new interest groups can open up!
Please contact the Director of interest groups if you have an idea to share, we would be happy to hear from you and answer any questions that you may have. Contact the Director of Interest Groups
 We ask that all members be 'Scent Free' and refrain from wearing scented products when attending NOTL Newcomers Events. People with a sensitivity to scents can experience severe reactions to these products. Please help everyone enjoy a safe experience at NOTL Newcomers by adhering to this request.
