Social Clubs

Apple Club:  Occasional meetings for those with Apple devices and computers to learn more about creative ways to Maria@AppleMentor.com
 
Book Groups: Whether you read several books a month or like to leisurely read one special book each month, membership in one of our monthly book clubs can be a great experience for you. CCNNA currently has more than ten book clubs and each club sets its own meeting date and selects its books.  Your participation will give you the opportunity to read new books that will expand your horizons and allow you to make new friends.  Book clubs are enjoyable and purposeful!  Contact Dale Rudolph dale.rudolph1@gmail.com if you want to join the exciting world of CCNNA book clubs.

CCN Single Women: This group tries to meet in person at least once a month. We have organized dinners at restaurants, happy hours, and wine appetizer events at people’s homes. Depending on the activity there may be a limit to the number of people attending. The RSVP’s are on a first come first serve basis. We communicate via email and only share contact information with the group. We are open to new ideas. Any person in the group is welcome to plan and organize an event. A contact person is needed, let us know if this is something you could organize.
 
Cinema Club: There are several CCNNA cinema clubs which meet monthly in a host's home. The host selects one or two movies for the members to watch before coming to the meeting. Because each club has chosen to keep their group small to facilitate discussion and due to limited home seating space, all current clubs are full. A waiting list will be kept; when there are enough names on the list, a new club can be formed.  Contact Terri Cohen at terripcohen@yahoo.com.
 
Exploring Denver: Join our neighbors in exploring Denver’s unique attractions through CCNNA’s authentic guided tours highlighting cultural offerings, historical sights, behind the scenes tours, and even some walking tours. Our planning committee organizes monthly tours that offer small groups the opportunity to learn more about Denver’s hidden treasures each month. Some tours have a fee for the guides or facilities. Contact Linda Barker, barkerlk22@gmail.com, to sign up or suggest tours for this group.

Photography Club: If you are looking for a place to learn more about your camera and how to compose interesting photographs, Photography Club is for you.  If you would like to meet some of your neighbors in the neighborhood who also are interested in photography, then Photography Club is for you.
