Family
In the Grand Old Badger State, women 60+ are finding meaningful connections through The Ethel Gathering Groups. These private Facebook communities are the starting point for local events—like scenic walks, friendly chats over coffee, or art and music outings—that help older women feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
Along the shore of Lake Michigan and the Bay to the heart of the Fox Valley we stir up a monthly mix of music, crafts, and good times! We keep it fresh; you keep it fun—and it’s always a blast!
From boat rides to crafts and everything in between—join the fun! We’re a vibrant group of women hosting joyful events and building warm, welcoming friendships. Let’s make memories together!
We brunch, we curl, we cruise, we have fun! There’s something for everyone to explore with us!
