About UsWe are a vibrant club of nearly 300 women from across Canada and around the world. Our goal is to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere where women can meet one another, make friends, and learn more about their new home in Greater Victoria. From September through May, we host at least seven club-wide events, including our Annual General Meeting in May. In June, we celebrate our “graduating” members as they move on, wishing them fond farewells and bonne chance. Alongside these larger gatherings, members can take part in more than 25 activity groups and events throughout the year. These range from active pursuits like hiking, biking, and pickleball to creative and social groups such as book clubs, knitting, gardening, bridge, and more. Some activities run year-round, while others pause during the summer or winter months. No matter your interests, there’s a place for you here to connect, explore, and enjoy all that Victoria has to offer. | Activities and EventsThere are so many fun and engaging ways to connect with friends through the Newcomers’ Club of Greater Victoria! Our activity groups reflect the wide variety of interests of our members, and we’re always open to new ideas. Find a group that sparks your interest—or start one yourself. New activities and conveners are always welcome! You can join an activity group at any time during the year, as long as space is available. Once you’ve joined, it’s entirely up to you how often you participate—whether every outing or just once in a while. The choice is yours! |
