Why Does WOW Exist?

Of Note

What's Going On?

WOW seeks to provide its 170+ members the opportunity to learn about their community, support local charitable and civic activities, and socialize in an atmosphere of friendliness and goodwill. Aside from the luncheon meetings held monthly from September through May, WOW members are active in 19 clubs and activities throughout each month. In addition, several activities are planned where members can contribute their time and expertise or enjoy social outings with other members. Examples of these are day trips, fund raising activities and volunteering at our charity.

....Alice....A Word from Our President 
Hello Ladies.....
      Happy New Year! As we welcome January, I hope your holidays were filled with joy, laughter, and special moments with family and friends. A new year always brings a sense of fresh beginnings, and I’m excited about what lies ahead for our club.
     January is a wonderful time to reconnect, try something new, and enjoy the friendships that make our group so special. Our club continues to be a place where women come together to share conversation, laughter, and support—and that spirit is stronger than ever because of you.
     Our January meeting will be held on January 15 at Stoneybrook West Golf Club, and it promises to be both fun and meaningful. We will be hosting a Treasure Sale, featuring new and nearly new items generously donated by our members. Tickets are $5 each, and all ticket proceeds will be donated to our chosen charity. It’s a great opportunity to find a little treasure while supporting a wonderful cause.
     As we move into the new year, I encourage everyone to stay involved, invite a friend, and consider lending a hand when opportunities arise. It truly takes many caring volunteers to make our gatherings, luncheons, and activities such a success, and every contribution—big or small—makes a difference.
     Thank you for being part of this wonderful community. I look forward to seeing you on January 15 and sharing another year of friendship, fun, and memorable moments together.  Wishing you health, happiness, and many smiles in the year ahead.
      Warmly,

 Alice Bergeson, President             248-921-6025

Ladies, we've packed away the tinsel and holly. We've eaten dozens of Christmas cookies and sat back to remember our wonderful Christmas program with Gabe Preisser.  It's time now to ring in 2026 filled with fun, fellowship, and new friends.
We welcome our newest member, Mary Wright, to join us in our many exciting activities.   Lastly, I wish you peace, joy, and much laughter in the New Year.
I will have hard copies of the directory at our January luncheon in case you need one. You can also print one from this website.
