Newcomers Club of Cuernavaca, 150-member
families strong. Our organization functions to welcome new English
speaking families into our community. We strive to aid in the cultural
integration of our members into the rich Mexican environment. Our
functions range from book, film and dance clubs, speakers, tours, sports
(tennis, golf, walking, hiking), cooking classes, play groups and
holiday festivities. We also are proud to contribute to our community by
numerous philanthropic activities that take place year round, including
black tie dinners, and luncheons. Last year the
newcomers Club of Cuernavaca contributed to various causes around
Cuernavaca including; The Organization for the Blind, Vamos! (American
based non-profit organization working for the poor), The Children’s
Hospital of Morelos and more. Our publications include a monthly
newsletter, service guide and a survival guide. Our activities are in
English but are open to everyone. |

ABOUT THE CITY OF CUERNAVACA
Cuernavaca,
the city of eternal spring is located only 45 minutes away from Mexico
City (by super highway). The 1 million residents of this quaint city
enjoy its clean air, small town feel and unique climate. Given that
Cuernavaca lies on the slopes of a mountain, the altitude changes
sufficiently to cause four distinct weather patterns. The north of the
city is a cool mountain forest, whereas the southern plains are almost
arid. The temperature ranges from 26 to 32 degrees Celsius year round.
Traditionally the rainy season last from May to Sept, with heavy showers
at night and clear sunny days, winter (Dec. to Feb) has cool mornings
and evenings which may require a light sweater, is followed by a few hot
and dry months. Foreigners flock to its famous language schools. Others
arrive with various international companies located in the state of
Morelos. The city, with a typical Mexican center, full of narrow street
and a colorful, lively plaza, also has modern theaters, shopping malls,
super markets, university research institutes.
