FAQ:

Q: I thought MIWC is for retired ladies, will I feel out of place as a younger Mother?

A: No MIWC is for all ladies over 21 years of age.

Q: Why join MIWC if I already attend a Mother and Toddler Group, I can make friends there?

A: You can be a member of both clubs, extending your circle of friends. MIWC is about taking a break and doing something fun that is just for yourself, all Mom's need a much deserved break. Why not try some evening activities and see what you think?

Q: I am part of the LGBTQ Community, will I be able to join MIWC?

A: MIWC is an open affirming organization. You will be welcomed with open arms like all our ladies.

Q: I am concerned about arguments about religion and politics, this puts me off joining community organizations. How does MIWC deal with such disagreements?

A: At MIWC our Bylaws prohibit the discussion of religion and politics at club activities/events. Our focus is on fun and friendship.

Q: I volunteer on a school PTA board, I would love to be on the MIWC Board too, is this possible?

A: Absolutely, we appreciate volunteers and often have open chairs, ask us for more information.

We look forward to welcoming you.
