Free Spirits

Writing the Next Chapter

About Our Group

Free Spirits is a social group for empty nesters or couples whose children are old enough to be left at home alone. We organized because we have such a good time together, we wanted to share our times with other couples in the congregation. We have had great fun getting together to share a meal, work together for a great cause, and attend a concert or the races.

Meeting Details

We have a different event each month that is planned and executed by one of our members.
When: On a weekend, once per month
