SPEAKER SERIES and GENERAL MEETINGS

Meetings in the Speaker Series consist of a one hour talk on a variety of interesting topics followed by a social time with refreshments, and ending with a business meeting.  We offer hybrid meetings, with both in-person and Zoom attendees.

Members, friends and guests are welcome at our Speaker Series and women may join the Club at any time during the year.  We meet on the fourth Monday of every month from September to May (except December) at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church Hall, 4235 Departure Bay Road, Nanaimo, at 7:00 pm.

*Please note that all CFUW Nanaimo events are fragrance free as is St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church Hall.

INTEREST GROUPS

In addition to general meetings, small groups of members join each other for discussion, activity, friendship and fun in a wide variety of Interest Groups. Members also go on jaunts, and attend special events and activities.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Members can also get involved with community projects or help to raise funds for our Scholarship Program.
