Get Out
Make New Friends
Have Fun!

If you’re looking for an opportunity to get out of the house, make new friends, and participate in exciting activities, then look no further. New Friends of Carolina (NFC) is what you’ve been looking for. Founded in 1989 as a not-for-profit social club for women, NFC welcomes both new comers to the Carolinas as well as those who have lived here for years.

There’s no need for concern about pressure. You’ll find the members of our club to be both friendly and welcoming. They simply want you to join in the activities and have some fun. There’s something for everyone. For a complete list of activities, see INTEREST GROUPS below.

President's Message

The President's Message

Good day, Friends,

Welcome back from the beach, the mountains, your cruise, a family reunion, or wherever the summer months took you. NFC has a basketful of exciting activities for you in September to get you back into the swing of things.

Our first Welcome Coffee for this membership year is on September 12, so if you have friends interested in becoming members, please let them know. Also, newer members that have not attended a Welcome Coffee before are encouraged to attend to learn more about NFC activities and the website. Lunch Bunch 2 is added to the calendar, so more members may enjoy this popular monthly offering. Our special high tea membership luncheon will take you to
England vicariously at A Cause for Tea. Our own Jessica Peach will be the featured speaker, regaling us with stories about famous London tea houses. A Pop-Up event will give members an opportunity to explore a historic textile mill that was repurposed to a vibrant food hall offering an eclectic mix of food stalls for lunch on September 30.

And of course, all the other wonderful activities our interest group chairs offer complete the bushel basket of goodies this first month of fall. Partake !

Debbie Williams
President, New Friends of Carolina.
