FMB Woman’s Club announces schedule
To the editor:
The dates of our three major fund raisers for the coming season have been announced by FMB Woman’s Club President Joyce Hopkins. Our Style Show/luncheon will be on Jan. 23. Fashions again will be by Rebecca’s of North Naples. It’s always a fun day with lots of prizes, a Chinese Auction, good food and lovely clothing. The annual “Attic Treasures” Flea market will be held on Jan. 30. It’s not too soon to clean out your closets. We accept small appliances, art, small furniture, linens and tools and toys. Please bring to the Clubhouse, 175 Sterling St. on Tuesdays or Fridays from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Our Tour of Homes is scheduled for either Jan. 21 or Jan. 28. We’re busy finding beautiful homes. If a few of you snowbirds would like to volunteer your organizational skills and great ideas to this major fund-raiser, we welcome new ideas and help.
The Woman’s Club offers bridge on Tuesdays and Fridays. Tuesday’s tables are set but we always welcome new friends. Sign up as a sub if you don’t have a table. On Fridays, we offer “open bridge” – progressive, six hands, then change. This is popular! Please sign up on Tuesday during the day if you wish to play so we can assure everyone a place, or call Claire at 454-6612. We have a group who plays Liverpool Rummy and would like to have a couple tables of MahJongg, but we need someone who knows the game to organize. Fees for a day of fun are $5 for non-members and $3 for members.
A reminder, The Clubhouse is a great facility to host your meetings, activities and cultural productions. It offers a central location, plenty of free parking, kitchen facilities and much more. Call Helen at 765-9790 for more information.
