About Our Club

Welcome:
Thanks for your interest in MOMS (MOMS Offering Moms Support) Club! Our chapter is very open to new members. In fact, you probably won’t be the only new person. We are growing month to month. Although some of us have lived here for years, some of us are new to the area or new to MOMS Club. We all have one thing in common- MOMS Club introduced us to other moms like us...moms who became our friends!

About our Chapter:
We are a non-profit support group for stay-at-home moms or moms that work part time. Some of our activities include a monthly recipe exchange, park days, smaller playgroups, monthly “field trips/activities” for the kids, and a Moms Night Out (our only non-kid event). We are also involved in community projects to benefit Chandler families and children. (i.e. donations, fundraisers, volunteer work)

Meetings:
All of our meetings and almost all activities are during the day, when at-home mothers need the support. Activities take place at public venues (such as a local park, restaurant, or stores) and others are hosted by members in their homes (such as recipe exchanges and play dates).

Bring your child(ren):
Our only non-child event is our monthly MNO (Moms Night Out). Otherwise, children are expected and encouraged to come! You don’t have to bring your child(ren) to attend an event, but if you do please remember that you are responsible for their safety and behavior. Sometimes, a member volunteer may watch the children (such as at the Monthly Business Meeting), but most of the time we are all together, mothers and children.

Dues:
As part of the International MOMS Club, we do have a membership fee of $25.00. This fee is due each year the same month as the month you join the club. You may attend two public events before deciding to become a member. We understand that being an at-home mom may mean a tight budget for your family. If the dues would be a hardship, please talk to one of your board members.

Annual Cookie Exchange

What a fun time we had at the cookie exchange. The kids had fun playing, decorating cookies, making holiday crafts and getting hyper on sugar. The moms had fun catching up, playing with the kids, gathering delicious cookies, and going home with a bottle of wine! :) Thank you so much to our host for opening up her home to chaos and the fun parting gift!

Fire Station Tour


The toddler playgroup went on a tour of the fire station today. The kids had so much fun. We got to see where they eat, cook, sleep and work out. This fire station is one of the few that actually has a slide and a pole for the fire fighters to go down when there is a call. After we toured the inside we went to the garage to see the fire trucks. They showed us all around the truck and all the kids got to climb inside! Fire Fighter Shawn showed us how they get dressed so fast and put on all of his gear. At the end of our tour they got a call so they had to go. The hopped in the truck, turned on the lights and they were off. It was a super cool day!!! Thanks Fire Fighters for all you do!

We had perfect time playing at Playtopia for our "P" themed Park Day! :) The kids enjoyed the three "P" themed activities: playing with the parachute, painting the letter "P", and playing with pumpkin play dough. For lunch we all enjoyed eating peaches, pretzels, pumpkin pie, pudding, pumpkin candy, pasta salad, and potato salad. After lunch they enjoyed playing at the park!

Mom & Tot Lunch



For this months Mom & Tot lunch the group headed over to Peter Piper Pizza for lunch and a tour. Peter Piper opened just for our group and we got to see how the dough was made and how dough turns into pizza. The kids had a blast seeing the ice machine and best of all...making their pizzas.

Service Project at Merrill Gardens

We had a fun hour at the Merrill Gardens Nursing Home for our service project. We have gone to visit in our Halloween costumes for the past few years. The kids had fun meeting the residence and getting candy after their parade. The residences "oohed" and "aahed" and had a few laughs watching the kids running around.

Recipe Exchange and Park Day

Mystery Mansion Dinner Theater



Four moms had an interesting Moms Night Out on Saturday. The location and set up of the theater was a let down, but we laughed a ton and enjoyed a very late meal. Laura nominated Yvonne to be in the fashion show which was hilarious. The four had a fun night together but didn't crack the case!

Family Activity Night

What a fun time we all had at Bounce Jungle. The kids enjoyed running around, screaming, and getting very sweaty while the parents either joined in, played with the babies, or caught up with other families. It was a fun family night that ended with pizza and a few kids not wanting to leave!
