North Andover Women's Club 80th Birthday Party

This year the North Andover Women’s Club (NAWC) celebrates its 80th Birthday! The NAWC was founded in 1935 by Helen S. Carvell. In 1935, there was no organization in North Andover for women. Mr. Carvell encouraged his wife and her friend Eva Atkinson to start a club for women. Over its 80 years of existence, the NAWC has worked to strengthen the intellectual, social, and charitable life of the town. Over its 80 years, the NAWC has provided exemplary service to the Town and its citizens. Among the NAWC’s many accomplishments are thousands of dollars in scholarships through the Helen S. Carvell Memorial Scholarship and the Muriel E. Henry Memorial Scholarship. The NAWC has contributed financial support to retired veterans, the Steven’s Memorial Library, and the People’s Pantry. The Club also helps support the “Light Up The Common” annual light display in the Old Center. New members to the club are always welcome. To celebrate its 80th Birthday, the club is hosting a “Tea Party” luncheon on September 20, 2015 at the Stevens Estate. Tickets are $35. Please contact Rosemary Smedile at (978) 689-2949 for tickets and information about joining the club.
