A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart. – Goethe

Every Club has a mission, it is organized and run by our volunteers. These are the dedicated residents and members, people who make the PEACH work. They are the life force, they are like family, la Famiglia. Not only do our volunteers organize, sometimes instruct, work in or together with other clubs, they also participate in the experience. If you have any questions, they are there to answer them. If you need help, they are there to help. If you just need someone to listen, they will listen. Our goal is to allow those in the community to join any Club for the experience, find out where their true passions lay.
Each month in our newsletter, we feature one or two of our Clubs. We find out what they are up to for the year to come and what they have accomplished in the past. This gives everyone an idea what the Clubs are about and if this is something other members might enjoy.
The Clubs are arranged like the Arts: Fine Arts, Practical & Folk Arts, Skilled Arts and we added Educational Arts. The Educational Arts Club leans towards developing and coordinating other areas that intertwine in the PEACH Community. They are specific to certain topics and geared towards people who love to organize, lead and teach. If you are a Representative in any of the other clubs, you will find some connection to one or two of these Educational Club in the organization of your own Clubs. Our aim with the Educational Club is to bring better communication to everything that is happening within the PEACH Community.
Clubs are all based on our Culture and Heritage, including Local American Culture. If the need for a Club changes over time or there is a desire to add a new club, that is within the bounds of our Culture and Heritage, the Educational Club is where the magic starts.

Club Rules
Some Clubs have restrictions based on age and gender. There are also areas where children are not allowed to go without a parent or guardian under the age of 12. Children of guests must be with the parents or guardian at all times.
Each Club arranges the time which they would like to meet during the week and posted hours. A Representative for each Club must coordinate this with the Scheduling Office for days, times and facilities needed. If there are any scheduling conflicts between clubs for any reason, it is up to the Representatives to work this out between them and notify the Scheduling Office and all Club Members ASAP. Of course, we will always post dates at the top of the website for any major changes. Check it often!
The Clubs will be listed on our website with all the pertinent information. Each club has its own set of General Rules, sometimes there are fees for supplies, travel and visiting guests. We do our best to keep these costs low, use grant or online funds. If you are in need and let us know.
