Jenkintown Newcomers Club
We Turn Neighbors Into Friends
Welcome to the 70 year of the Jenkintown Newcomers Club. The Jenkintown Newcomers Club brings
Jenkintown residents together for social and civic activities. Any Jenkintown resident can join the club,
whether new to the town or just new to the club. This year we have planned events that were popular in
the past, as well as some new events that we hope you will enjoy.
Each year's success is built around the time and efforts put in by the members who volunteer to
coordinate and organize the events by joining the committees. We would like members with five or fewer
years of membership join at least one committee. It is a great way to meet people! However, any
member is welcome and encouraged to be on a committee.
We are currently seeking committee chairs or volunteers and host houses for the various events to take
place in 2012-2013 as shown on the registration form. We are also currently seeking a Vice President for
this year, 2012-2013. Please let us know if you are interested and have any questions about the position.
In addition, we are always open to receiving new ideas for events or information regarding new
neighbors. Please feel free to contact us by e-mail. Furthermore, we encourage all to pass this flyer out to
anyone new to Jenkintown or unfamiliar with the Jenkintown Newcomers Club.
We want to thank everyone in advance for your time and interest in the Jenkintown Newcomers Club.
Sincerely,
Jenkintown Newcomers Club
