The 2021 House & Garden Tour Committee wants to thank all of you who made the event successful. Whether you were an attendee enjoying the gardens, a homeowner sharing your outdoor space, a volunteer making the day flow smoothly or a sponsor providing financial or in-kind support, you helped make our annual fundraiser a success!
The proceeds from the Tour will provide funding to continue our tradition of awarding scholarships each year to graduating high school seniors who live in Bexley. Since 1937 we have awarded over 900 scholarships! Hope you enjoyed this year's outdoor Tour and we look forward to your participation in next year's Tour on June 5, 2022.
We are an engaged women’s network actively participating in and supporting our community through scholastic and social services since 1935. Our activities are shared by members of all ages across Bexley.
Bexley Women’s Club is about both service and friendship. We participate in community events through the year and hold regular club gatherings to bring members together. We offer many opportunities to connect, have fun, and make new friends.
Since 1937, Bexley Women’s Club has awarded scholarships every year to deserving students. As of 2020, the Bexley Women’s Club has provided approximately 900 scholarships to high school seniors living in Bexley, totaling almost $550,000.
Support for women & their families has always been a priority for Bexley Women’s Club. We work with partners like the YMCA Family Shelter, Bexley’s own Developmental Assets Resource Network (DARN), & Operation Buckeye to fulfill our social service mission.
