Mission
The mission of The Madison Newcomers Club is to
offer new residents of Madison a place where they will
find a friendly environment, welcoming women, and an
opportunity to learn about their new town.
We will seek to create an atmosphere in which our
members will feel a sense of belonging to their club
and to the Madison community at large. Our aim is to
help the members become acquainted with one
another, through opportunities for all to participate in
a wide array of special interest groups, committees and
club activities. We also will provide the members the
opportunity to take an active role in the civic and social
welfare of their town, through civics projects and fund-
raising endeavors aimed at benefiting the needs of
Madison.
We hope to make The Madison Newcomers Club a
desirable organization to be a part of and one that
serves a worthy purpose in the community for both
members and nonmembers alike.
History
On March 13, 1968, with approximately 60 women
present, the Newcomers Club of Madison and Guilford
was established. Mrs. Stanwood Dolph and Mrs. Paul
Stoddard, the Welcome Wagon Hostesses, were the
original founders. The club grew rapidly during the
first five years, making it necessary for the group to
divide into two separate clubs, one for Guilford and
one for Madison. On June 5, 1973, the Madison
Newcomers Club was formed.
From 1973 to the present time, The Madison
Newcomers Club has been a well-known social and
civic organization in the town of Madison, whose
primary purpose is to provide a meeting ground for
new residents to town with the aim of helping the
members become acquainted with one another and to
take an active role in the civic and social welfare of
their community.
The opportunities to partake in the club’s activities are
varied and plentiful, and made possible through
involvement in monthly meetings with interesting
programs, special interest groups, a number of
committees as well as ongoing social activities. In
order to ensure that the members also become
involved with the community at large, the club does
focus efforts on civic projects by volunteering time to
community events and by organizing fund raisers in
town in an effort to raise money to donate to a variety
of needs in and around Madison.
The Madison Newcomers club invites any woman who
has moved to Madison at any time to join our club.
Last year we consisted of about 150 members and we
continue to grow!
