Our Valued Elders
CFUW Brantford is blessed to have a number of longtime members who can relate the rich history of our club, and also of Brantford itself. During the Monday lunchtime book group gathering, we were treated to an insight into the birth of the iconic Stedman Bookstore, beloved for generations by Brantfordians. The Stedman legacy continues to this day, in the form of funding good works throughout our community. Our cherished longtime member, Marian Weir, shared with us anecdotes and history about the birth of Stedman’s Bookstore and the Stedman Foundation.

Day Trippers’ outing: pizza and a show!
What a great way to spend a chilly and damp Spring day. Our “Day Trippers” travelled to Cambridge for a delicious lunch at Pizzeria Motola followed by a matinee show of “Finding Neverland” at the Hamilton Family Theatre. Truly an A+ day!
Our scholarship committee hard at work!
Books over Lunch!

Games group
The games group meet on April 9, 2026 and played farkle….which sounds naughty but is not
. Teddy B. Is the reigning champion.
Food for thought
The food for thought group meet on april 6, 2026. Dinner and conversation were lovely but the highlight of the evening was the key lime pie made by Barb S. which was a work of art.
Flash melt: walking group
Our warm day was great for walking, but the water rushing through the woods …. yikes!
Book and lunch group: today’s 7 books!
Dining Out, local!
Our Dining out Group stays close to home in the winter months when driving conditions may be challenging. In February, twelve of us enjoyed lunch at Pupusa City, a family owned and operated restaurant in West Brant that features Salvadoran and Mexican food. Our assessment: Good food, very affordable, an informal atmosphere, attentive service — and walking distance for our members in the Blackburn/Conklin area.
