Who we are: |
We are a group of moms looking for support and who want to connect with other moms in the area. We are for first-time moms, to moms of many. Our children range from newborns to college aged. We love to get together for play days, crafting, to help out with babysitting, mom night outs, checking out local events, and many more adventures!

Things we do: |
Usually we meet during the week days, with the exception of our Mom's Night Out. Our events depend on the weather and the season, and are really inspired by the moms who are active in putting up activities. All of our active members have access to add events to our calendar, so there is always a great variety of things to do. We usually have something going on at least once, if not twice a week or more! The wonderful thing about MOMS Club® is that you are ALWAYS invited to all the events, but you are not required to attend any of the outings. The amount you can and want to participate is up to you.
Some examples of things we do: Play Days: We love to get together just to have the kids play, and the moms chat. Meeting Days: Twice a month we get together at a local church and utilize their nursery for indoor play and get together to discuss current MOMS Club® information, decide on events to fill our calendar, and chat about anything mom, and not mom, related. Children are always welcome to all of our meetings! Park Days: There are so many wonderful parks in the area and around the Forest Lake area, so we try to hit as many as we can each season. Many of our park days can include a picnic lunch. Adventure Days: As much as there is to do around this area, there are also plenty of things to do around the metro. Often enough we will schedule a bigger event like doing a Toddler Tuesday at the MOA, or a day at the MN or Como zoo. Especially in the winter, we try to adventure out to some of the great indoor play areas the twin cities has to offer. Book Club: Mamahood is hard enough to find some time for ourselves, but sometimes we try to read a book and get together to discuss it. This is a great way to do book club since the children are always invited to the discussion as well. No need for a babysitter, or trying to work around evening activities. Service Projects: Every year we take on one big service project to somehow benefit other moms in our community. Throughout the year we are always looking at little ways to invest our time and talents to support the community as well. Helping Other Moms: Sometimes we need a quick sitter, advice, or a place to vent. Having a network of moms close to home makes all of this, and more, possible! Mom's Night Out: Getting together with our kids is great, but we are really focused on mom support. We love to get together without the kids at least once a month just to have some mom time. Sometimes we meet out. Sometimes we meet at a member's home. Every the time it is fun! AND MORE!!! Click here for a sample calendar. |
