Who We Are
Newcomers and Neighbors of the Deerfield Area is primarily a social organization which provides opportunities for you to meet people, make friends, and become acquainted with the community, all while participating in a wide variety of fun activities and special events.
Purpose
The purpose of the club is to foster friendship among members of the organization and other newcomers to the community, to create a civic interest in our community, and to acquaint newcomers with the advantages of Deerfield. The club was founded in 1949 by Martha Jordan.
Philanthropy
