Currently FCMC's annual membership dues are $35 per year. Checks can be made out to "FCMC". Please
either mail payment to the below address or deliver payment to our treasurer, during our monthly General Meeting.
2. When are General Meetings?
General Meetings are held the
second Wednesday of every month. New members attend at 7:00 pm with the general session beginning at 7:30pm.
3. Where
are the General Meetings held?
In the Foster City Public Library and Community Center, in the Community Center section,
2nd floor, the Port room, #204.
4. What does the annual fee pay for?
FCMC is a non-profit organization.
Funds received from annual subscriptions cover costs of room rentals for General Meetings, babysitting at the General Meetings, production
distribution of monthly newsletter, and depending on remaining budget for various club services and events.
5. Do I have
to live in Foster City?
Though most of our members do live within the Foster City community, we do have several members
from sorrounding areas such as San Mateo.
6. What is a playgroup?
A playgroup is a sub-community of members
who have children within the same age range. Each playgroup is a bit different but the intention is to allow moms to get together
with their children of similar ages. Together they can share stories, ideas, advice and companionship while their little ones play
together. Depending on the age group, playgroups meet at member's houses, parks, the mall, coffee shops and whatever creative idea
the playgroup coordinator may decide.
7. How do I join a playgroup?
Once your a member, you can find
information related to playgroups in the monthly newsletter and in the "Member Services" area of the web site. Each playgroup is listed
along with the age group and times they meet.
8. What if I don't see a playgroup that fits my needs?
Create
one! That's how all playgroups were started. An inspiring mom contacted the main FCMC playgroup coordinator who is a board member
to get necessary information. Then once the details were discussed, a playgroup was started and the new playgroup was listed in the
newsletter and web site.
9. How can I advertise my services to the members of FCMC?
We provide several options
for advertisers via our newsletter. See the "Advertise" section of the site for more information on rates (linked from the home page).
Fees collected from advertising provide additional funding for club events and activities.
10. What if I have an idea
or suggestion for improvement?
We very much welcome ALL suggestions and ideas from our members. At each General Meeting
there is a suggestion box where you can anonymously provide feedback or simply send us an
email.
