Traditionally, a wife of a Y’s Man was called a Y’s Menette and they sometimes formed an auxiliary to the local Y’s Men’s Club. Today, Y’s Menettes are women who have chosen to join a Y’s Menettes’ Club – and a Y’s Menettes’ Club today is no longer an auxiliary to a Y’s Men’s Club but is an equal partner and has its own programme to support the local Y’s Men / Y Service Club, YMCA and the community.
Y’s Menettes share the warm fellowship of an international organisation, by:
Participation;
Enjoying social activities which often involve the whole family;
Attending Regional, Area and International Conventions;
Learning of our friends and fellow members in other countries through the “Sister Club
program”.
We have 5 clubs in our Area: 4 of which are in the Maritimes Region and 1 in Jamacia. In the Maritimes 2 of our clubs are very active and 2 that are mostly inactive. The 1 club in Jamacia is usually very active but are now just getting things up and running with some projects in the making.
