Member Clubs and Community Room
Members are encouraged to start clubs or groups in areas they’d like to pursue. Currently, we have an active book club, walking club, travel club and knitting group.
Our Community Room (aka The Kremer Room) is a great place to socialize. It also has our lending library, stocked with books donated by members as well as a rotating supply of books and audio books brought in by the Mansfield Public Library.
The Community Room is also where we hold our Committee Meetings and social events. Weather permitting, we like to gather on the covered patio.
Bocce
Check out our Bocce Court between Building 5 and the Pond. We open up every Spring, and players are welcome any time.
Garden Volunteers
We're always looking for folks to volunteer to beautify our common areas. Of course, members are encouraged to plant and maintain the beds around their unit with local flora.
Sing-Along
The Sing-Along at Glen Ridge is an informal group of residents who enjoy singing together. We meet on the last Sunday on the patio outside the Kremer Room. Each month they choose a theme, genre of music, or specific songwriter(s) and/or performer(s). Participants are encouraged to bring one or more songs with copies of lyrics to share. We are NOT a group of polished singers or performers and ALL voices are welcome.
Coffee Hour
There’s a weekly afternoon coffee hour in the Community Room or on the patio organized by our great Hospitality Committee. Please check the published monthly schedule for times and join us for refreshments, including home-baked snacks.
Saturday Night Social
BYOB social time in the Kremer Room or on the patio every Saturday night. Good conversation, good friends, and a chance to meet and greet all the new neighbors that have graced our community this past year.
Men's Night
Join a monthly get together for an evening of conversation, companionship, pizza and beer (BYOB).
Table Games
Scrabble, Cards and other pursuits are scheduled weekly in the Community Room. All are welcome.
