The Newcomers' Club of Greater Peoria seeks to encourage friendships among new residents and to promote their involvement in the community and its social activities. We welcome residents who have moved to the area within the last five years and those who have had a recent lifestyle change (i.e. stay-at-home mom, empty nester, retired, etc.) and wish to meet new people in the area. Currently, the club is made up of over 100 members of all ages and various stages of live who have relocated to Peoria from various parts of the world. The Newcomers' Club of Greater Peoria was founded in 1936 by Mrs. Josephine Putnam. Over the years, the club has had thousands of members. The Newcomers' Club meets monthly for a luncheon and there are many additional daytime and evening activities scheduled throughout each month.
