About Us!

The Newcomers' and Neighbors' Club of Mt. Lebanon was founded in 1942. After WWII, Pittsburgh’s major industries brought many new people to the Mt. Lebanon area. The club was organized for the purpose of developing friends and fellowship among new and existing residents to help them assimilate with their new community. That goal remains the same today...

The clubs activities are numerous and varied. They prosper by the active participation of all our members.  We encourage our members to join as many interest groups as they wish and attend our fun and exciting social events.   Our monthly functions just to name a few are: Book Clubs, Movie Night, Couples Night Out, Ladies Luncheons, Running, "Out and about in Pittsburgh", Ladies Night Out, Kids Outings and Playgroups.

Generally, Special Interest Groups have a standing meeting date each month. The specific dates, times and locations are noted in our monthly newsletter. Our monthly coffees for the 2006-2007 year are held the second Wednesday of the month. We have both morning and evening coffees throughout the year.

We view Newcomers’ as a bridge that connects our newest members to each other and to the community. We have a wonderful year planned with several all-club events. Our biggest party of the year is our annual Wine Tasting and Silent Auction, on February 24, 2007. This is an event not to be missed.  To kick off the new year we are having our first annual Morning Social in the Park for all members and their families, Saturday, September 16, 2006.   We will also make this the first year that we will reunite with former Newcomers’ via our annual Wine Tasting and Auction for a terrific social event and reunion.  We will have a Halloween party this Fall and a Spring party in May, 2007.  Plan on marching with your children and canine companions in the annual Mt. Lebanon Halloween Parade.  You will receive details of our social events and activities in our yearbook and monthly newsletters.

We encourage all members to attend as many events or participate in as many activities as they wish.  We encourage and are grateful for help in planning with the social committee and interest groups. When comfortable we invite you to become a leader of an activity, standing committee chairperson or hold a position on our board of directors. Involvement helps us feel connected and paves the way to friendship, good memories and a sense of community that benefits all.
