Founded in 1984, our group was started with the intention of bringing women together to cultivate new friendships and learn more about our (maybe new) hometown of Jacksonville. Our group is for both ladies who are new to the area and those looking to form new friendships and activities in a familiar place! 

We're proud to offer a diverse calendar full of social meetings, programs and activities among friends! Most of our meet ups are located on the south side of Jacksonville but we do occasionally explore new areas and take trips. We'd love to have you join us for an adventure!

We are the
Southside Newcomers Group.

We take so much pride in the diverse offerings and quality friendships within our Southside Newcomers Group community! We welcome women of all ages, backgrounds and hobbies to join us for fellowship and fun. We'd love to have you attend one of our events as a special guest and get to know our group.

We believe that every woman has a place within our group.

where do we meet?

Homes of Friends

Some of our activities are hosted by our members in their homes. We occasionally meet for games, clubs and crafts thanks to our lovely hostesses here on the south side of Jacksonville. 

Local Spots

Our luncheons, clubs and meetings are often hosted at local Jacksonville country clubs, restaurants and neighborhood community centers. We also frequent the Southeast Regional Branch of the Jacksonville Public Library. 

Day Trips

Our group loves to go on field trips and adventures! From day trips out of town to local fun and seasonal happenings here in NE Florida - we like to explore it all!
