NewcomersBoard

The Newcomers’ Division of The University Club is open to all women during their first four years of residence in the Iowa City area.  Our monthly meetings provide the opportunity to meet other newcomers and to learn more about this unique community.  Invite your new neighbors to a coffee or other Club activities.  The coffees and other activities are as a rule for adults; family events are noted separately.  It is our hope that this will provide everyone, especially our young mothers, an opportunity for adult socialization; however, we are not able to provide you childcare at our coffees'.  We meet the 3rd Thursday of the each month, except in December.  Our June 18th, July 16th, and August 20th coffee’s will be held at Terrapin Coffee, 12th Avenue  & Oakdale Blvd. in Coralville.  This will be a great opportunity to meet new friends and explore Iowa City.
