Comments

The May Court Club of Barrie, established in 1970 (Barrie's first civic club) is a volunteer organization of dedicated members committed to helping those in need in our community.

We run the May Court Shop - Ladies Consignment boutique in downtown Barrie and fundraise in events such as the Homes For The Holidays.  Other opportunities within the club include volunteering with seniors and delivering nutrition to local schools.  A meeting is held once a month.  Socials exist too.  

This is an ideal organization for volunteers who enjoy people, want to meet new friends, give of themselves with time, early retirees.  Check us out by visiting the May Court Shop at 54B Maple Ave.
