Who We Are

Welcome to the Fallbrook Newcomers Club! Whether new to the area or a longtime resident, we welcome you to join us in friendship and fun.

FALLBROOK NEWCOMERS- In 1966, Mary Wannebo Lindskog and her husband Vernon found their way to Fallbrook, where Mary started Welcome Wagon to welcome to orientate others like herself new to the area. A few years later, it was "Fallbrook Welcome Wagon Newcomers Club” and then in 1972, simply Fallbrook Newcomers Club.

The first meeting, held in her home, had seven ladies in attendance, with their first order of business "open a bank account and plan a picnic." Many activities and much fellowship followed that first picnic,

and much has changed, but her vision to welcome and encourage friendship and connection remains

the club's cornerstone.

Today Fallbrook Newcomers Club welcomes both men and women and is an organization devoted to

promoting friendship and social interaction. Members enjoy learning about the community and local resources, having fun, and making connections.

We are a diverse group from all geographic areas, careers, interests, talents, and ethnic backgrounds

and our activities continually evolve to represent our members' interests. FNC has several annual events and over 20 monthly activities, from a monthly social meeting with informative speakers, social gatherings, games, day trips, outings, book clubs, hiking, golf and so much more. There is truly something for everyone.

On the second Thursday of each month, we have a Social Meeting which includes coffee, light refreshments, and a speaker presentation.

Our annual membership is $35 per family and includes a monthly newsletter with many opportunities to connect and activities to enjoy each month. In our website you’ll be able to access full activity/event details, sign up for your choices, access the member directory and more. A Welcome Team will help you “navigate” your way and get started in the club.  You’ll soon find yourself getting to know others with shared interests and begin establishing the friendships that are the foundation of FNC.

To join now, click here or join us as a guest at an upcoming Social Meeting, held on the second Thursday of each month. We also welcome your emails.

Once we hear from you, we will respond and help you connect. Don’t wait! Reach out today to learn

about the club and our activities and meet the men and women you will soon count as friends.

We look forward to meeting you soon!
