Mothers of Twins Club Celebrates Life's Riches

Will County Mothers of Twins Club is excited to host the 51st annual Illinois Organization of Mothers of Twins Club Convention in Joliet, IL on October 18th-20th. 

 

Founded in 1995, Will County Mothers of Twins Club is a local Mothers of Twins Club that provides support, guidance and hope for mothers of multiples (twins, triplets).  We are a not-for-profit organization whose goal is to improve the lives of our members through education, friendship and aid.  WCMOTC is part of the state-wide organization, Illinois Organization of Mothers of Twins Clubs, Inc (IOMOTC).  IOMOTC was founded in 1962 as an educational, public service organization for mothers of twins and higher order multiple birth children.  IOMOTC provides support, information and networking services to parents of twins and higher order multiples through its member club affiliates and the annual convention.

This annual event is regularly attended by 200 women who are all mothers of multiples who come to relax, learn how to strengthen their local club and strengthen their families.  And, most of all they come for a weekend away of uninterrupted sleep and connecting with other mothers of multiples.

This year, Will County Mothers of Twins Club has planned breakout session topics that include Estate Planning, Abundant Life-Nurture Yourself, Sibling Rivalry, and Internet Safety. Plus there is a Keynote Speaker that will speak on "Life Happens....Laugh Anyway"....  But before the business that happens on Saturday, on Friday Night they have planned a banquet they called The Bugsy Jazz Club.  At the banquet they will be serving an Italian Style Buffet. And they state in their registration pamphlet “To ensure the geniality between all mob families, the Donna has arranged for an open bar…”  Will County Mothers of Twins is sure to engage and encourage these mom’s to let go a little and transport them to the Jazz Era.  Other activities mentioned include, The Ritz, All that Jazz, The Cotton Club, The Garbo Spa and a trip to Harrah’s Casino.
