SOCIAL ACTIVITIES

Here at the Y we provide social activities for active older adults to come together for fellowship and fun.

 

 

 

ADULT BOOK CLUB

Offered at Appleton YMCA on the second Monday of each month from 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM.

Reading with a purpose! Book Club Members will choose a different book each month. Meetings will provide regular opportunities to read, unwind and have thought-provoking conversations with others who share the love of reading. Registration is done on a monthly basis, so join in anytime! Grow your mind and enjoy the company of other readers!

 

 

BIBLE STUDY

Offered at Appleton YMCA on the first Friday starting October and ending in May from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM. (Women only).

Offered at Neenah-Menasha YMCA every Tuesday from 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM and every Thursday from 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM.

No prior Bible knowledge is needed for this informal Bible study class. Please bring your own Bible otherwise we will supply one for you.

 

 

COFFEE SOCIAL

Offered at Appleton YMCA every Tuesday from 9:00 AM - 10:30 AM.

Join us for a cup of coffee and some great conversations! This weekly social event, held in the commons area of the Appleton YMCA, is a great way for you to connect with other active older adults while enjoying coffee and a tasty treat. 

 

 

CONTRACT BRIDGE

Offered at Appleton YMCA every Monday from 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.

Learn to play contract bridge or brush up on your game. If you are a beginner, come with several friends to make a table of 4. Novices are welcome, however at least one table of 4 novice players is required for instruction. Learning to play or continuing to play bridge keeps those neural pathways clicking, develops new ones, and provides social interaction with other players.

 

 

KNITTING

Offered at Appleton YMCA every Wednesday from 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM and every Thursday from 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM.

Join the YMCA's Knitting Circle, where you can practice your skills and learn new techniques while creating knit goods. This opportunity is for like-minded knitters to enjoy the social aspects of knitting together. Please bring your own projects and ideas!

 

 

MUGS & MUFFINS

Offered at Apple Creek YMCA on the third Tuesday of each month from 7:00 AM - 9:00 AM.

We invite you to join us for a healthy snack, cup of coffee AND socializing with friends! Bring your own mug, fill it up, enjoy a tasty treat and connect with other active older adult members. It's another way the Y wants to help keep you healthy and connected!
