Club & Group Listing & Descriptions
| Babysitting Co-ops |
NCL
has one babysitting cooperative, the Town Center group. A
babysitting cooperative consists of 12 -15 families who provide
babysitting services for one another. Instead of paying for a
sitter, members trade off babysitting sitting services and are "paid"
based on a points system (i.e., if you sit for someone's children you
earn points, if they sit for your children, you pay them points).
Each member acts as secretary on a rotating basis to arrange the sits
(usually about once a year), and there is a chairperson and bookkeeper
to keep track of the sits. The members of these co-ops are CPR
and first aid certified, must attend an annual meeting, and must abide
by the General Rules set forth for each Co-op. |

|
| Book Club |
NCL currently has five active Book Groups which
meet anywhere from once a month to once every couple of months in
members homes to discuss books chosen by the group. |

|
| Bunco |
Bunco
is a dice game played with 12 players , four players at each table.
Players roll for points and "buncos" (3 of a kind). Roll the most
points and/or Buncos and you can win. Lose the most games, and you
still might win! Partners change throughout the game, so it is a great
chance to meet new people. There are currently 2 active Bunco groups. |

The
Cocktail Club is a couple’s club, meeting every 6 weeks or so, usually
on a Saturday evening. Members bring food and the host usually provides

consisting of 8 to

| Supper Club |
A
Supper Club consists of 8-12 members and meets about every 6 weeks. The
host picks a theme and makes the main dish. The other members are
assigned appetizers, side dishes, wine, or dessert to complement the
theme or the main dish. Everyone takes a turn hosting over the course
of the year. |

| Wine & Apps Club |
This
group is ladies only, with an occasional event for couples. The hostess
provides the wine and determines a theme if she wants to, everyone else
brings an appetizer with the recipe to share. These clubs have just
started so there’s plenty of room to expand! |
