Interest Groups are designed for UWC members to promote friendship and social outings as well as enjoyment of hobbies and other interests.
Groups function independently with the leadership of group chairs on a designated schedule to avoid conflicts with other Interest Groups or UWC meetings and events.
To participate in an Interest Group, contact the chairperson to see if groups are meeting and if they are open for new members. Some groups have size limits. Only dues-paying members of UWC are eligible to participate in the Interest Groups.
Timely information and announcements from each Interest Group are published monthly in the UWC Newsletter.
