Other benefits of membership

Meets Our New Moms Mixer
A mixer is held quarterly for new club members and new mothers of multiples.  A committee of volunteers serves an assortment of refreshments in a member's home, and all the guests have to do is enjoy!  The Club's newest members can get acquainted with one another and with committee members.

Big Sister Program We have implemented a program that assigns veteran mothers of multiples to new moms as their liaison about issues of concern. Sometimes just talking to someone who has experienced what you are feeling is a big help.  Your "Big Sister" will check in on you from time to time.  However, feel free to contact your "Big Sister" with questions you may have.

Library Our lending library contains resource materials (books, magazines, videos, etc.) relating to the raising of and caring for multiples.  Members may borrow these materials, available at most General Meetings, free of charge.

Play Groups Members are encouraged to join and participate in play groups.  These regular gatherings of parents and their children of similar ages are a great way to socialize young children, teach them to play well with others, and enable them to learn from one another.  These gatherings can also become a great support system for parents.  If you are interested in joining a play group, you will be provided with a list of members who have children around the same age as your own.  If a play group already exists for your age group, you will be informed who to contact to join that particular group.
