The Bridge and Luncheon group meets on the first Friday of each month at 11:30 am with social time followed by lunch provided by the host, then followed by three rounds of bridge. Presently there are 9 members, with one person hosting and/or sitting out each month on a rotating basis.  

All skill levels welcome. Players must be fully vaccinated. 

We currently need spares for this group.

If a minimum if four additional people express interest in being part of a Luncheon Bridge, a second group can be started. Meeting dates and times to be decided by the new group.

Social Bridge is an informal and great way to spend an afternoon. All levels welcome. We play on alternative weeks, with members hosting a table in rotation.  A light snack is usually served. Depending on numbers there may be multiple tables per session in different people’s homes. If you are not able to commit to alternative weeks, spares are welcome.

This cycling group is now in our fourth year where we enjoy weekly recreational cycle excursions of approximately 20-25 kilometres. Preferably on paved bicycle paths or country roads, but also on rail trails or wherever a path might lead us. For planning, we normally meet on Tuesdays at 10 and cycle for approximately 90 minutes. However, we’re a flexible group and we sometimes adjust the time due to weather or the day due to special circumstances. Often lunch is in a quaint small town restaurant, or where one is unavailable, we pack a picnic lunch to enjoy the view and company. Or we might plan a pot luck or BBQ. We normally start in May once the weather is warmer and cycle until October or November depending upon conditions. Participants take turns finding the road less travelled and leading us on a new adventure each week. Come join us!

**Not offered 2024-25.** This group meets in dog friendly locations to walk dogs and socialize. Until a coordinator comes forward Maida Murray has agreed to host dog walkers on her property. At this time the group will meet at Maida’s on Friday at 1:00 pm.

Looking to socialize in a relaxed setting? Join us and enjoy good food and interesting conversations. Members and their partners/spouses meet once per month, from 5:30 to 8:30 pm on the third Friday of the month. Members contribute one sweet or savoury finger food dish and provide their own beverages. Dress is casual, and the event may be held indoors or outdoors, depending on the weather and the time of year. The hostess sets the maximum number of attendees for each gathering, usually between 16 and 24

This group meets monthly in members’ homes on the 3rd Wednesday from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm to discuss various topics in French. The hostess serves light refreshments. Members should be fluent in French fluency, but some rustiness is fine. Come out to a meeting to decide if this group is for you! New members always welcome.

Join fellow members to watch TIFF films on first Friday of the month at 2pm at the Studio Theatre. Then head to a different restaurant for drinks and discussion.  Movie tickets are $12.00 each and films run once a month from October to May.

Continuing next spring! Meet for 9 holes on a Monday morning.  Many local golf courses to explore. Golfing will be from beginning of May and will continue until the end of September. FULL

A fun, friendly group of women who enjoy a game of 9 holes at some courses close to Perth Monday mornings. We play from May until October weather permitting. In 2025 we will be playing best ball weekly with 3 foursomes. We often stay for lunch or a beverage after the game and to socialize.

Do you like to cook and enjoy dinner parties? Give the Gourmet Club a try. We meet the second Saturday of the month in home settings (four couples per home) to share a delicious dinner planned by one member, hosted by another. Each member brings the dish they've been assigned and all costs are shared. Any couple not able to commit to a minimum of four dinners will be Spares. This is an opportunity for spouses and partners to get involved with CFUW.
