New support group for
at-home moms to meet
The MOMS Club of Millstone Township will hold an open house at 10 a.m. July 28, at the Monmouth County Library Headquarters, 125 Symmes Drive, Manalapan.
The club was recently formed as a sister chapter of the MOMS Club of the Freehold Area, which will be joining them at the open house.

The group offers a range of activities, including special programs for mothers, play groups for children, and get-togethers for the whole family. The MOMS Club also performs service projects benefiting needy children in the local community.
All meetings and most activities are held during the day and mothers may bring their children with them to all MOMS Club activities. The MOMS Club of Millstone Township is open to mothers from Millstone Township and Roosevelt. At this particular event, the Millstone MOMS Club will be joined by its sister chapters, The MOMS clubs of Freehold and Manalapan. For more information, contact Diane at (732) 786-1602.
