Coffees

Coffees, another very popular NCC event, are held every month except February and August.  They are held in various public locations as well as in members’ homes.  This gathering gives new members another opportunity to meet new friends and to learn more about the area.

Drinking coffee is not required to attend.  Hostesses serve orange juice, as well as other drinks of their choice. Members who have signed up contribute egg bakes, breads, fruit, or other items. It's a great opportunity to get to know people. 

Day/Location: The 3rd Wednesday of the month at 10 am. The location is announced in the NCC newsletter.
