Clubs & Groups

We Have Lots of Clubs & Groups at Cresswind Charlotte! 
Where do YOU fit in?
 
Clubs and groups are where you combine hobbies and friendship to make your active adult lifestyle more fulfilling. Cresswind Charlotte’s clubs and groups offer something for everyone! If you enjoy arts and crafts  or bocce ball, dancing or photography, card games or pickleball, or maybe you like to get out and about – you name it – there is likely a group for you to join. Our clubs and groups are open to all Cresswind Charlotte residents and can spark your creativity, nurture a skill, or teach you something new! And if there is not a one in Cresswind Charlotte that suits your fancy,  all you have to do is start one.
 
CHARTER CLUBS
Clubs are “organizations” that are sponsored by the Cresswind Charlotte Community Association Inc. to foster and promote opportunities for all Community Association members (residents) to pursue common interests in hobby, recreational and cultural endeavors.
 
COMMUNITY GROUPS
These groups provide additional opportunities for residents to come together with mutual interests that further enhance their lives and the lifestyle of the community. Organized groups may at some point optionally choose to become a Charter Club.
