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.

St. Patty's Day Open House

What a great turn out we had for our open house. The kids had fun playing many games and getting prizes. We all enjoyed eating green food and playing at the park.

Wild Card Activity at USA Fitness Youth Center

What a great way to have fun and get the kids energy out! The USA Fitness Youth Center was a blast. The kids got to run around, jump into a foam pit, bounce on the trampolines, and use the gym equipment with the help of two coaches. There was even a toddler area for the smaller kids! We all can't wait to go back again.

March Kid's Activity Day

A new fun place opened up in Chandler called the Young Chef's Academy. We went the other morning for a free class with just our group. The older kids had fun making cheesy bread sticks and the younger ones enjoyed the play area out front.

Park Day

We enjoyed a fun gathering at the park the other day. Before and after eating lunch the kids had fun in the sand box and two playgrounds. It was a shorter visit to the park as it got really hot...even in the shade. Hope to get a few more park days in before we hit the really hot weather. :)
