A great event and cause to add to your February calendar! Come to the Norwich Inn on Monday February 9 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm for a no charge, no ask kick-off party in support of the Norwich Women’s Club’s second annual IMPACT NORWICH fundraising appeal. We are raising money for need-based education scholarships for Norwich residents pursuing post-secondary education, and for community projects for our town.
Join us for music, a free drink and a free chance to win a fabulous raffle prize - a large basket filled with goodies and gift certificates that we are calling a Basket of Norwich Goodness. Most importantly, here’s your opportunity to visit with your friends and show your support of the annual appeal. No problem if you can’t make it that night. All Norwich residents will receive a mailer about the IMPACT NORWICH campaign in their mailboxes shortly after the party. Hope to see you there! Bring a friend.
