Organizations Troy Woman’s Club The Troy Woman’s Club was organized in 1947 by noted area clubwoman Mrs. P.R. Rankin of Mt. Gilead. The club, which had 24 charter members, was meant to bring together women who are actively interested in the welfare of the community and who enjoy the fellowship of this association. For many years the club held an annual Antique Show & Sale and later a successful Tasting Affair, and continues to do fundraising for its community benefit projects, including an annual spring luncheon honoring elderly ladies in the community that continues today from the initial event in 1950. The club has sponsored citizenship and scholarship
awards to West Montgomery High School students annually and sponsored children’s activities at TroyFest. Club members have also enjoyed many trips over the years, including visits to New York City, Philadelphia, Nashville, Memphis, Williamsburg, Va., and Hershey, Pa. Club dues are $25 annually, and meetings are held the third Monday of each month from September through May at Uwharrie Mercantile in Troy. Additional information on member responsibilities and/or joining this organization are available by mailing Troy Women’s Club, c/o Rosemary Huntley, 120 Byrd Street, Troy NC 27371.
