THE WOMAN’S BOARD

The Woman’s Board was formed in 1976 by an enterprising group of women to support the entity they considered vital to the unique quality of their community. Their children had spent Saturday afternoons playing ball in the gym of the Community House, watched movies in Matz Hall on Friday evenings and congregated during after-school hours at the bowling alley. Over the years, the landscape of the Community House has changed, but the fundraising efforts of the Woman’s Board have always stayed constant. Today, eighty-five percent of the funds raised by the Woman’s Board go directly to the operating budget of the Community House, with the remainder earmarked for special projects and needs. Our members are a multi-generational group of women, working together to support and promote the Community House. We work in a team environment with many opportunities for individual contributions. Members of the Woman’s Board are “ambassadors” for the Community House.

The Winnetka Club

www.thewinnetkaclub.com (847) 446-1830 Since our early beginnings in 1908, The Winnetka Club has been an integral part of the civic and philanthropic life of the North Shore Community. The services and support provided by the Club have changed with the demands of the times, and we continue our tradition of “giving back” as we celebrate our 110th anniversary in 2018. During World War I, service projects in support of civilian efforts were the focus. During the years of World War II and beyond, members have been instrumental in ensuring home delivery of mail and providing other needed services – as well as organizing the PTA and League of Women Voters in Winnetka. Each May, we host our annual Housewalk, featuring amazing homes around the NorthShore; proceeds from the Housewalk support our annual scholarships to graduating seniors who live in New Trier Township. The Club also supports many other philanthropic endeavors throughout the North Shore and Chicago community. We welcome new members as we look to grow and expand our reach. We host a monthly Book Club and offer many other social and cultural events for our membership, including monthly Friendraiser dinners in local restaurants, engaging lectures and activities, and other membership events to enrich and empower.

TOTAL Community House of Winnetka is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in the safest manner possible, and holds the safety of the participants in the highest possible regard. Participants and parents registering their child recreation programs must recognize, however that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing to participate in recreation activities. Community House Winnetka continually strives to reduce such risks, and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions which have been design to protect the participants safety. Please recognize that the Community House of Winnetka does not carry medical accident insurance for injuries sustained in its programs. The cost of such would make program fees prohibitive. Therefore, each person registering himself/herself or a family member for a recreation program/activity should review his/her own health insurance policy for coverage. It must be noted that the absence of health insurance coverage does not make the Community House of Winnetka automatically responsible for payment of medical expenses. Due to the difficulty and high cost of obtaining liability insurance, the agency providing liability coverage for the Community House of Winnetka requires the execution of the following Waiver and Release. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. Please read this form carefully, and be aware in participating in the program(s) listed on this page, you will be waiving and releasing all claims for injuries you might sustain arising out of the activities of this program.

I agree to waive and relinquish all claims I may have as a result of participating in the program against the Community House of Winnetka and its officers, agents, servants and employees. I do hereby fully release and discharge the Community House of Winnetka and its officers, agents, servants and employees from any and all claims from injuries, including death, damages or loss which I may have or which may accrue to me on account of my participation. I further agree to indemnify by me or arising out of, connected with, or in any way associated with the activities of the program. In the event of emergency, I authorize the Community House of Winnetka officials to secure from any licensed hospital, physical , and/or medical personal any treatment deemed necessary for immediate care, and agree that I will be responsible for payment of any and all medical services required.

Participants agree to receive promotional and informational emails from the Community House of Winnetka. REFUND AND PRORATE INFORMATION Full refunds will be issued for courses that are canceled by the Community House of Winnetka due to insufficient registration.
