CLUB HISTORY

The Winfield Junior Woman’s Club is celebrating 40 years of community service and philanthropic endeavors.  The Club was organized in 1967 with a group of six women, and Barbara Gary serving as the first president.  One of the first major projects that the Club undertook was to celebrate the Illinois Sesquicentennial in 1968.  This event proved to be so popular with Winfield residents that the event became Winfield’s annual Good Old Days celebration, held the weekend after Labor Day ever since.

Throughout the years, the Club has supported the Winfield community and beyond with programs and monetary donations.  Over the past 10 years alone, the Club has donated over $110,000 to organizations ranging from the American Cancer Society to the YWCA.  In the local community, the Club has made donations to the Winfield Garden Club, Winfield Historical Society, Winfield Chamber of Commerce, Winfield In Action, Winfield Public Library, Winfield School District 34, College Scholarship to Winfield Area Student, and Central DuPage Hospital with a toy collection for its Pediatric Oncology/Hematology Department.  Winfield residents have benefited from Snacks with Santa, Children’s Halloween Party/Scarecrow Fest, Winfield Road cleanup/Adopt-A-Highway, Candidate’s Forum, various fundraisers, and the Club’s participation at the Good Old Days

On Saturday, April 12th  in 40 degree weather with rain and snow flurries, nearly 80 runners/joggers/walkers joined the Winfield Junior Woman’s Club in their inaugural Junior Jog 5K event.  The event was an outstanding success in raising over $4,000 for the People’s Resource Center, a local organization which helped over 20,000 people in DuPage county last year with the most basic of human needs: food, clothing, and rent assistance, as well as literacy education, technology training, and other enrichment programs.

Junior Jog will be held April 18th starting at 8:30 AM at Lion's Park.
