1) Are there any member age or residency restrictions?

Absolutely not. Most members are from Sandwich or residing towns on Cape. We are women of all ages. We are stay at home moms with young families, working women and empty nesters.

2) When are the meetings and do I need to attend them?

All club business is conducted at monthly Business Meetings, which are generally held at 7pm on the second Monday of each month, excluding the summer months. The location is usually a club member's home.  Program meetings are held 6 times per year - roughly every other month.  The programs cover many topics related to women's health, entertainment and education. Although we strongly recommend attending meetings, it is not a membership requirement.

3) When can I join and what will I do as a member?

We accept new members throughout the year.  Annual dues are $30, and defray the cost of monthly programs, newsletters, and GFWC dues. Each member is encouraged to volunteer for at least one community service project and one fundraiser each year. You may sign-up to volunteer on community projects and fundraisers at a Business or Program meeting, or by contacting the project chairperson directly.  

4) What does the Executive Board do?

The Executive Board consists of the President or Co-Presidents, 1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, Treasurer, Recording Secretary and Corresponding Secretary.  The Executive Board meets monthly to oversee the routine business of the club , to plan for future events and programs, and to recommend projects and expeditures to the membership.  The board may approve expenditures that do not exceed $200 and may act on behalf of the membership in an emergency.

5) I am not sure the SWC is for me. How can I be sure?

Please feel free to attend any general meeting throughout the year. (Refer to our general meeting schedule.) Check us out! You can also be added to our Guest Newsletter List as well.

6) How do I contact other members?

We all receive updated membership lists when necessary for your convenience.

7) How do I sign up for membership or make changes to my contact information?

At each general meeting, there is a membership table set up to answer all your questions and to get you signed up. You may also contact us at our Email: info@sandwichwomensclub.org.
