Virtual Events with Chatham Newcomers and Social Club

Contributed by Chatham Newcomers and Social Club

The stay-at-home orders didn't stop the Chatham Newcomers and Social Club from holding fun (virtual) events. First, there was a Men's Night “In” of Virtual Poker on April 16. This popular monthly event was hosted online and all winnings benefited our local Interfaith Food Pantry serving Morris County. The men collectively raised and donated $400.

Men’s Night “In” Virtual Poker and Beer Tasting events

One of our members, Will Dodge, owner of the upcoming Bull N Bear Brewery in Summit, hosted a virtual beer tasting on April 24. Participants received four delicious beers to sample and were guided by Will and his brew master on a tasting journey.

Members also gathered on April 22 for a special book club where we heard directly from the book author. Local Chatham resident Lisa Tognola discussed her novel, As Long As It's Perfect. Lively conversation was had by all.

The month of May also brought a much-needed Ladies quarantine hair rescue virtual event hosted by local Chatham salon, Luxe on Main. At-home-help with hair, timely advice on color and cuts along with a few ideas on skin care and nails were shared.

We will continue these virtual gatherings as long as we’re required to be at home.
