Who we are and what we do.....
History
Moms’ Club began in 1965. You’re joining more than 1300 moms who have supported efforts to assist the House Director, encourage fellowship among mothers, and raise funds to support extra FarmHouse comforts and conveniences.
Fundraising Power
Club funds are used for new initiate gifts, furniture, power tools, fitness equipment, hoops and recreation games, patio furniture, salad bar and more! Moms vote annually on the use of club funds based on requests from the chapter members.
Volunteer Opportunities
Opportunities for the moms to volunteer are shared via email/Sign-Up Genius throughout the year.
Moms' Weekend
In late Feb/early March we gather, connect, raise funds for fraternity life at FarmHouse, laugh A LOT, spend time with our sons, and worship together. Mark your calendar to attend and get ready to make memories!
