During the club’s early years, the Garden Committee played an active role in improving the town. One of its major projects was the creation of Washington Park at the intersection of Routes 460 and 258. Members arranged for landscaping, added benches, and helped make the park a gathering place for the community.

Each Christmas, a tree was placed in the park, and the club sponsored a Christmas Eve carol sing. The club also paid for the tree’s electric lights, which cost approximately $1.20.

Another element of the Woman’s Club work has been an interest in maintaining a library. The club collected books for the enjoyment of its members. Several times, the club ordered books. Then members donated books. These were kept at a member’s house and she acted as librarian. In 1938, the books were moved to the Science Hall and borrowing books took place one day a week when a member would act as librarian. In 1958, the collection was given to the Windsor High School library.

The Woman’s Club interest in books continued, however. The club has held book swaps, book reviews, and the group worked to obtain a library for the town. A delegation of club members attended a meeting of the Windsor Town Council to solicit help in making a public library possible. And in 1995 this became a reality, and the club has continued support both financially and through volunteering, and several members joining the Friends of the Library.



On Saturday afternoon The Woman’s Club of Windsor

hosted an International Day of Service to promote the

Prevention of Child Abuse. We sat up tables at 4 locations

in Windsor with information and pamphlets on Child

Abuse. Thank you to Anna’s, El Rodeo, Redd’s, and

Rusted Root for letting the Woman’s Club use your

restaurants to get information out on Child Abuse. To help

bring adults to our attention we offered free face painting

to anybody and everybody. The members participating

were Jamie Appel, Carole Joslin, Kathy Carraway, Kayla

Carraway, Sandra Quillin, Sandy Vinson and Mary Lee

Willis. Special thank to your face painters Maggie

Baughman, Carly Bradshaw, Destiny Webb and Ashley

Whitby. Thanks to Sumner Bradshaw and Crystal Webb

for volunteering. Thanks go out Office Moore and Social

Services for the pamphlets.

We will never forget September 11th. The Woman's Club of Windsor held a ceremony in town to commemorate and honor those who died that fateful day, and the brave men and women who lost their lives to help save their fellow contrymen.

Food Bank of Southeastern VA

The Woman’s Club of Windsor worked side by side this morning with The Food Bank of Southeastern VA and other volunteers from various organizations. The Food Bank meets at the Isle of Wight County fairgrounds the first Friday of each month. Griffin’s Little Free Produce and The Full Plate were blessed with a donation of left- over produce. Oh, Happy Day!!

Club Members Bonnie Johnson and Jamie Appel had the pleasure of serving breakfast to the teachers of Windsor High School to welcome them back for another school year. We wish students and teachers alike a successful year!
