Don't miss out on our events planned this fall & winter. Be sure to include on your calendars! All times are TBA and we'll communicate online and follow us on Facebook for Events post updates.

We are introducing TWO new series for our Membership E-Newsletter to keep members informed and involved. The first is Member Moments and we are requesting photos that you feel comfortable sharing with fellow members of your special trips and/or activities. Check out the June/July 2019 Summer edition where Club President, Susie Scott, kicks off the series with her recent adventure to Yosemite!

The second series is Memories of Mandarin as we collect and archive tales from old Mandarin or the Mandarin you knew and loved. We hope these will capture and help archive that special essence of Mandarin and may one day tell its history.

To share with your fellow members in our upcoming newsletters, please contact info@mandarincommunityclub.org.

Renowned portrait artist and published author, Ann Manry Kenyon, will be the Third Thursday Lecture's guest speaker on May 16, at 7 p.m. (doors open at 6:30 p.m.).  A Jacksonville native, Ms. Kenyon has painted Chief Executive Officers, distinguished faculty, and private commissions throughout the United States.  A few years ago, she painted the portrait of Harriet Beecher Stowe, which is hung in the Mandarin Community Club building.

​Third Thursday Lectures are presented by the Mandarin Museum & Historical Society in partnership with and held at the Mandarin Community Club, located at 12447 Mandarin Rd. Refreshments begin at 6:30 pm with the lecture at 7 pm. It is free and all are invited and encouraged to attend.

The Club will host a Candidate Forum for qualified candidates who are running to represent Mandarin as part of the District 6 City Council race.

• Forum begins promptly at 7 pm and ends at 8:30 pm
• An Open Q&A will follow the Forum at the pleasure of the candidates
