Newcomers is a 70+ year-old organization with the mission of helping area residents develop new friendships and learn about Alexandria and the surrounding communities. Meetings are held monthly on the 4th Tuesday of the month (except for December) at Shalom Lutheran Church (681 Voyager Dr. in Alexandria). During each meeting we feature speakers from the community, we hand out prizes from local businesses, we have social time and members have the opportunity to sign up for special interest groups (SIGs). SIGs are a smaller group of members who get to know each other while doing a specific activites such as wine tasting, biking, theatre, crafts, card games and more. They can be whatever you are interest in. Some of the SIGs are one time events while others occur on a regular basis. And some of the SIGs include spouses as well. Membership is $20 for 5 years. We often hear members say that Newcomers allowed them to develop lifelong friendships.
