A note on BWC Events and our Guest Policies:
BWC hosts many community events where we open our doors often and freely to support our commitment to bringing educational, civic-minded programming that benefits our whole community. Examples include the panel on Climate Action and the League of Women Voters at election time.
For our member events, such as our General Meetings, member happy hours, Mahjong, and monthly book clubs, we encourage our members to invite guests to attend so they can experience the club. However, we want to set the expectation that if a guest comes to more than two events, we expect them to commit to joining, as that is only fair to our paying members.
Thank you for your understanding.
