Manhasset Plandome Newcomer’s Club Makes You feel at Home
The Manhasset Plandome Newcomer’s Club is a great way to help you feel at home in no time at all.
The club has couple events, children’s events, ladies-only events and sometimes when a few guys get ambitious and organized, men-only events. If you want to meet other new people in town and immediately feel connected to the community, don’t hesitate, join!
I speak from personal experience. My husband and I relocated to Manhasset/Long Island for his job. The only person we knew here was our realtor, Holly. I grew up in New England and he grew up in the MidWest – we were both far from home.
Now, back then, I was not much of a joiner. We had no kids just a giant Labrador Retriever. I walked that dog until she limped. I made Holly keep showing me houses even though I had purchased one! I needed to meet people! Holly suggested joining the Newcomer’s Club.
Reluctantly, I signed up to attend a “Ladies Coffee”(found out coffee was code for wine). Stood outside the hostess’ house for 5 minutes trying to decide if I had the courage to walk in. Finally another gal came up the walk behind me and I had to go in or look foolish. Boy, am i glad I did! I sat down between two women who from that moment on are two of my best friends. I walked over to get some “coffee” and met another great woman (who is also a best friend) who I agreed to help with the club’s newsletter. That was a fun!
The following month I couldn’t wait to take my husband to the club’s Wine Tasting Event. Then the Annual Progressive Dinner, then the Holiday Black Tie Dinner. One great event was a Scavenger Hunt. At each event, I met more and more wonderful people who were so fun to spend time with. Friendships grew right along with our families. Great people and great times I would not trade for the world.
