Junior Newby
Junior Newby group was formed to serve JWC’s valuable members who, for whatever reason, cannot fulfill a traditional group’s meeting requirements. There are not any meetings, though you are invited to join The Woman’s Club Etta Newby or Night Newby department meetings. Junior Newby does not have any officers or dues, and the only communication you receive from JWC are the club-wide emails on upcoming events.
