The Rossmoor Woman’s Club (RWC) is pleased to announce its first General Membership meeting of the year on Wednesday, September 10, 2025 at 10:45 a.m. at The Grand Events Center in Long Beach. New members are always welcome! Membership is open to women and men from Rossmoor, Seal Beach, Los Alamitos, Long Beach and nearby areas. Guests are encouraged to contact Membership Chair Patricia Moore at (562) 547-4302 for details about attending the first meeting to experience the club firsthand.
“We have a lot of fun things planned this year, from interesting speakers at meetings to hands-on opportunities to serve the community. I think there’s something for everyone, whether your interests range from gardening to golf to giving back. I’m hoping to keep putting the “fun” in “fundraising” as we did with our summer ice cream social benefit for Food Finders. For the price of admission — a can or package of food — we enjoyed ice cream and socialized while collecting and helping Food Finders stock its pantry” says President Susan Denley.
In September, the RWC members re-commit to the club’s goals: fostering friendship, exercising their talents, and serving the community. At the meeting, the club will install the 2025-2026 Board of Directors and announce the club’s participation in Long Beach Gives, an annual fundraising campaign that benefits more than 250 nonprofits throughout the area. Guest speaker Carrie Eldridge, Long Beach Gives’ Campaign and Involvement manager, will explain how this fundraising platform works and how it can help us help others.
“Whether you are looking for friendship, fun activities, or ways to give back to the community, our club is the perfect place to connect,” says Cathy Fagen, Public Relations and Helping Hands Section Chair. “I’ve been in it for 8 years now and I make new friends each year. We have 8 different sections available to participate in depending on your interests. Plus, there is a new one for Story Telling starting up this year. We warmly welcome others who want to make friends, share talents, and become part of a supportive network. Whether you’ve lived here for years or just moved to the area, you’ll find a place with us.”
