GRNNC is a woman’s social club with many day
and evening activity groups to name a few: Art Appreciation; Needlecraft; Sewing; Book
Clubs; Dining and Lunch Groups; Wine Tasting; Bridge; Local Travel Trips;

daytime. Wine tasting, casual dining,
and destination dinner are scheduled for the evening. GRNNC provides support
to the local Embry Rucker Shelter with much-needed article donated by our
members each month. [Much-needed items
are written in the Newsletter.] As
funds are available, an annual monetary donation is made. GRNNC holds a monthly General Meeting on
the 3rd Thursday of *each
month at St John Neumann Church, Lawyers Road in Reston, VA. At the conclusion of the monthly General Meeting,
we have a program. Some of the
programs held this year have been Best Buy Demonstration of Electronic Gadgets,
Antique Jewelry Presentation, and Elder Law Attorney. In addition, we hosted two fund raising
activities this year: Chinese and
Silent Auction and a Feel Good Fair.
Refreshments are provided before and after the meeting and
program. Non-members are invited to
attend and there is no admission fee. [No meetings in June,
July, and August. Meetings resume in
September.] GRNNC hosts a “Coffee” each month at a
member’s home. If you are interested
in attending one of our Coffees to meet a great group of women, learn about
the club and/or just have an enjoyable time, please contact me. Coffee is scheduled for June 8 and July
13. [No coffee in August. They will
resume in October.] GRNNC hosts Special Events throughout the
Year. To mention a few held in the
recent past are Game Night, Halloween Party, BBQ, and a Murder Mystery. GRNNC hosts two luncheons annually. Our Spring Luncheon was held in May at the
Belmont Country Club and our 2010 Holiday Luncheon scheduled for December
will be held at McCormick & Schmick’s in the Reston Town Center. Margaret Nichols, President June
