Monthly meetings

Our Moms Monthly Meetings (MMM's).  A great place to learn more about the organization and listen to interesting speakers – takes place once each month either at a local meeting room or in the warmer months, outdoors. Examples of guest speakers we have had include college investment planning, teaching your child to read, holistic health pediatrician, cooking instruction, personal trainer, protecting yourself and much more! We aim to find a new topic monthly so there is always something new to look for!

Weekly playgroups

Weekly playgroups are one of our most popular offerings because they create an instant network of moms with similarly aged children and provide lasting friendships through weekly interaction. Our organization helps coordinate members into these smaller groups based on ages and / or time constraints.

Fun events

Each month we provide a calendar with lots of interesting and varying options. These include park days, craft-making sessions, tours of local businesses, museums or places of interest, pool days, hikes and other field trips. Many activities are free, although some require a small fee. We try to accommodate children of all ages whenever possible.  The MOMS Club board is always looking for new activities, so please don’t hesitate to make suggestions!

Park play days and hikes

Park play days and hikes are a great time to enjoy the fresh air with other moms and kids. During the warmer months we get together at local parks to let the kids play. These are good times to pack picnic lunches and make a day of it. We also like to set up monthly, stroller-friendly excursions so we can take advantage of our beautiful surroundings and expose our children to Colorado’s great outdoor offerings.

Mom’s Night Out

Once a month we get together at local restaurants, the movies or other interesting places to chat and unwind. These gatherings are very informal and a great way to get to know each other better.   

Sunshine committee

Our Sunshine committee coordinates volunteer efforts to help with meals, errands and/or babysitting for moms with an illness, family emergency, new baby or new home. Our sunshine coordinator is the person to turn to if you need help or want to suggest it for another mom.

Newsletter

Our newsletter is published monthly and is emailed as an attachment to all members.  They can also be picked up at the MMM's or mailed to your home - just let us know when you join if you would like it delivered to you in a way other than electronic format. The newsletter includes the monthly calendar and has attached with it details of every MOMS Club event, as well as other club news, information on new members, birthdays, recipes, events around town, snippets of humor, classified ads and a current roster of member names and phone numbers. Members are asked from time to time to contribute articles or information to the newsletter.

Calendar

Part of the above-mentioned newsletter, our monthly calendar is a great tool when planning your family’s schedule.  View sample calendar.

Service Projects

To keep our non-profit status, we are obligated by MOMS Club International to do one service project that benefits children each year. After that, we can do more service projects if the club agrees.  Our club typically strives to perform a service project a month, but every two months is our average. Ideas for service projects are given to the Administrative VP. As moms who are fortunate enough to stay at home with our children and give them the best we can, it is good to reach out to our community and beyond to help those who are less fortunate, and to demonstrate to our children what it means to help others.

E-group

We have our own little place on the Internet for any member who has access. It is called an e-group and is a password-protected area to share ideas, swap opinions and more. Each new member with an e-mail address will be “invited” by e-mail to join if she so wishes. It is a good way to catch up on MOMS Club news when the kids are in bed!

Executive Board/Board Meetings

You may notice on our calendar that we have monthly board meetings.  Each MOMS Club chapter has an Executive Board comprised of the President, Administrative Vice-President, Membership Vice-President, Treasurer and Secretary.  All positions are held for a one-year term from July to June.
