The CFUW Atlantic Regional Fall Gathering

October 18, 2025 1:30 – 4:00 pm AT (2:00 -4:30 pm NL)

​

Note to Presidents​

On August 11 at 6:30 AT (7:00 NL), there will be an ARC Executive meeting to which you all are invited (see email sent July 3/25). We would like you to discuss topics you would like to see covered at our upcoming Fall Gathering on October 18th. 

 

One topic that has been suggested is to revisit the purpose of the Atlantic Regional Council and how we can provide the most effective support to our 7 member clubs.
A related issue is how our clubs can best feel connected with each other and how we can best engage members with ARC activities. A document prepared by Gail Scott, RD PEI, was attached to the July3rd email and it provided background and discussion questions.

If you are not able to attend, please feel free to appoint a representative from your club to participate in this discussion. A brief agenda outline with the Zoom link will be circulated about a week before asking for you/your representative to confirm your attendance.

We look forward to having your input!

Enjoy your summer.

On behalf of the ARC Executive,

Karen 

ARC President

Who We Are

ARC was formed in 1988 to help improve communication, cooperation, and friendship among CFUW clubs in the four Atlantic Provinces, and to promote the policies and programs of CFUW.

​

Organizational meetings were held in Truro in 1987, and in March 1988 in Sackville, NB.  The CFUW Atlantic Regional Council inaugural meeting was held in Wolfville in October 1988 with 16 Clubs represented.  The CFUW Vice President Atlantic is the President of the Council, with Regional Directors (one for each of NS, NB, NL and PEI) and a Secretary-Treasurer forming the Executive.

The purpose of CFUW ARC is:

​

• To facilitate communication and cooperation of the clubs of the Atlantic Region

• To encourage and initiate studies on matters of mutual concern in the region

• To promote an understanding of provincial, regional and national issues and their implications through dialogue among member clubs

• To promote the policies and programs of CFUW, and

• To cooperate with other organzations on issues consistent with CFUW policies
