Chesapeake Newcomer Club

The Chesapeake Newcomer Club was started in 1989 as a way for newcomers to get to know each other, enjoy activities, find new friends in the community, and raise scholarship money for deserving students. The club meets at 11 a.m. on the 1st Wednesday of every month for a luncheon and program at Chesapeake Golf Club, 1201 Clubhouse Drive (Las Gaviotas subdivision). (Reservations required.) The bylaws of the Club are not discriminatory as to race, religion, or gender.
