Activity Groups
Activities are a great way to get together with a smaller group and take part in something you enjoy doing or, maybe, to learn something new. All of BNC’s activities are organized by volunteer convenors. We wouldn’t be the great club we are without them! Following are summaries of some of the activities we offer. Most Activities do not take place in July and August.
For more information, please see our activities list. Perhaps you really enjoy an activity that isn’t in our list. We welcome our members to convene new activities.
Please contact our Activities Coordinator via our contact page, to make arrangements.
Dining & Socials
There are several opportunities to join with others at restaurants and pubs for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You can also take part in pot luck offerings at members’ homes. Wine tasting and movies are other social activities.
Book Clubs
For those who are avid readers, BNC has several book clubs. Choose the day and time that suits you best. If you are a homebody, there is even one that meets via Zoom!
Games & Cards
Are you a trivia expert? Maybe dominoes is your thing. Are you an experienced euchre player or have never played but want to learn? We have activities for you! We also have groups playing canasta, Mah Jong, Rumoli, and Scrabble.
Staying Active
Being active is an important part of staying healthy, and it is always more fun with friends. You can choose from hiking, golf or line dancing. All of these activities welcome beginners as well as those with more experience.
Misc.
The Round Table group brings people together to chat, discuss, and debate topics of interest and importance. The Conversational French groups is for those who are comfortable with the language and want to stay that way. DayTrippers organizes bus trips a few times a year to take members out of Burlington and broaden our horizons. We could go to a museum in Toronto or a play in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Possibilities are endless.
