On behalf of the Westborough Newcomers Club, we would like to welcome you to our town! We are both a social and civic club open to all residents of Westborough (regardless of how long you've lived here). We hope that you will enjoy it here as much as we do! Westborough is a growing community, and we would like to help you feel that this is “home”. We look forward to meeting you and helping you out in any way that we can.

Each month our Club offers a variety of events ranging from "adults-only" parties to family and children oriented events. Events in the past have included the Annual Fall Kick-Off Party, Holiday Brunch, and Family BBQs. We also have a number of interest groups that meet on a monthly or bi-monthly basis like the playgroups, book clubs, bunco, men's night out, ladies' night out, craft group, fitness group, and wine tasting group. We are always looking for new ideas and new interest groups based on feedback from our members, so let us know if you have any suggestions!

The children’s playgroups are some of our most active interest groups. We currently have 3 different groups meeting regularly: a mixed ages playgroup for parents and children up to age 5, an infant playgroup for parents and children up to 18 months (and siblings if applicable), and a “happy hour” playgroup which meets for pizza. Many members have found that often the first, and sometimes the most enduring friendships are the ones that start at playgroup!

Each year, the Westborough Newcomers Club is proud to give back to the community. While we hope that our members will all take part in some aspect of our civic efforts throughout the year, there is no requirement to do so. The money we raise is used to support organizations within Westborough. Thousands of dollars have been donated to charities such as the Westborough Education Foundation and In Your Shoes. We are also happy to be able to provide the NE Aquarium Pass (available at the library) and to support the Westborough Food Pantry and Westborough Little League. We’ve had a long history of sponsoring needy families during the holiday season as well.

Our largest fundraising effort of the year is the Annual Art Auction held in early spring. This event is open to the public and offers a chance to bid on gorgeous artwork as well as gift baskets donated by local businesses and collaborative art projects created by area preschools and other small groups. It is a great evening out and helps us continue to give back to the community.

If you have interests such as these and want to join an interest group or form an entirely new one, please join the Westborough Newcomers Club and get involved! Often these activities can be just what you need to start building new friendships, learn more about the town you live in, and the many services that we can offer.
