The Woman's Thursday Club of Fair
Oaks was organized in March of 1902 by
a group of like-minded women in the
community. Their interest in literary,
musical and social activities brought
them together on two Thursdays a month.
They held their meetings in their homes
until the first clubhouse was built by the
members and their families in 1913. This
clubhouse was used until it was sold in
1954. The current clubhouse, purchased
the following year, continues to provide
for club membership and community use.

During the 100 years following the organization of the club, the membership has increasingly participated in charitable and philanthropic activities. A few of the many projects initiated by the membership are establishment of scholarships, donations to child welfare and supporting local improvements, projects and community activities. Special-interest sections, social gatherings and outstanding fund-raising events have also filled the agenda. |

All of the club's past and present
activities indicate the significant role The
Woman's Thursday Club has played in
fostering "Service, Culture and
Friendship" in our community.
