Open House Meeting of the MOMS Club of Bridgewater West If you’re a mom in Bridgewater looking to get out of the house, meet some fellow moms and learn about what our area has to offer, please join us for our Open House on Monday, October 1st, at the Bridgewater Library (bring a friend if you like). We will have a special breakfast for the moms and a craft for the kids. The MOMS Club is a non-profit support group for stay-at-home moms. Our upcoming schedule is full of exciting and fun activities you won’t want to miss! We have a murder mystery MOMS Night Out, many park days, and playdates on our calendar. Towards the end of the month there is a Halloween craft playdate and a Trunk ‘N Treat after school. We also will be giving back to the community by helping the Giving Network with their Tricky Tray, and a visit to the Raritan Health Center, where the kids will brighten the residents’ day with a Halloween parade. And what fall season would be complete without apple picking, pumpkin picking and enjoying the beautiful fall days playing at the park! We also have Fit Club activities (weight loss and fitness support), Stroller Club, and Book Club. If you’re interested in attending, or would like more information about our club, please email: info@bridgewaterwestmomsclub.com. You could also visit our website for more information: www.bridgewaterwestmomsclub.com.
