Fantastic Start to Fall for Chatham Newcomers

Contributed by Chatham Newcomers and Social Club

Chatham Newcomers has had a fantastic and busy start to the Fall season! The club hosted several events during the month of September including the monthly Men’s Poker Night, Board Meeting (open to ALL members!), Book Club discussed Gillian Flynn’s “Sharp Objects”, a STEM children’s event at Genius Gems in Millburn, Ladies Night Out at Board & Brush and last, but not least – our annual Back To School party at Fish and Game! The turnout for the Back to School Party was one of our strongest yet, with over 80 people attending and socializing over food, music, and beer pong and corn-hole tournaments. A special thanks to our social committee (pictured below) for organizing such a great event.
