Just A Few of Our Activities

---

The list below represents just a FEW of the fun things we do.  With so many regular monthly activities to choose from, as well as special events and impromptu diversions, chances are you will always find an activity you enjoy. Membership in Nanaimo Newcomers’ Club definitely has its rewards!  

STACK TEAM APP

In 2025, our club adopted an app call the STACK TEAM APP that lets you easily discover all our club activities and choose the ones that pique your interest. You'll also be able to RSVP to activities and events, chat with others in each activity, and get all the club info you need! Once you join our club, you'll receive access to the STACK TEAM APP and all its benefits. And don't worry, we offer support to new members to help you easily access and navigate the app.

Our members appear to love book clubs! We have four groups currently, several of which are full, but as a member-driven club, members are always free to start a new book club!

Meet once a month at a local café to discover new friends, socialize, and share information about various Nanaimo events/locations/shops etc.

Get together with a group of crafters to work on your own project, learn new techniques, or just have a gabfest!

We have two groups, and one is sure to  match your interests and fitness level. No better way to exercise, meet new friends, and explore beautiful areas around Nanaimo!

Explore wines from various countries paired with an appetizer.  We take turns hosting - the host chooses the country/type of wine.  It is great fun and a way to try wines you never thought to buy!  

 Flex your mental muscles and share in this great game with some new friends! 

Meet with new-found friends; there is no better way to get to know each other than at happy hour!

NNC club offers outings for lunch, drinks and appies (can bring your partner!), and dining in where we choose a food theme for the evening at a member's home.

Members frequently post a chat about activities and events (music concerts, farmer's markets, plays, day trips, etc.) taking place in the Nanaimo area and inviting NNC members to join in. These Impromptu Diversions are a great way to make new friends while exploring all the amazing opportunities our community has to offer.

For active types, we have both pickleball and golf groups within the club, both running during the warmer months.

During the summer months,  a group of us get together regularly to enjoy the many beautiful  swimming beaches in the Nanaimo area and take a dip. If you're a hard-core, cold-water swimmer, you can join our "Blue Tits" group and take a dip all year round!
