Activity Groups

 
Perhaps the most important part of this club are the many activity groups.  Some are waiting list only but are still listed in hopes you will either join the waiting list or perhaps start a duplicate group.  NEW GROUPS are always welcome.  To get more information, join a group, or start a new group, please send an e-mail to activities@hineighborkingwood.com
 
 
THE ARTS
 
 Theatre Group - The Hi Neighbor Theatre Group centers around the Arts.  Our group attends theater performances at locations around the Houston area.  Sometimes the productions are Broadway Touring Companies while others are local productions.  We always enjoy dinner before the show at different restaurants.  Upcoming events will be posted in the newsletter, monthly updated and on the website (members only section).  This group is open to all  members.  Cost covers ticket, service charge and transportation.  Reservations need to be made about 6 to 8 weeks before the event.  A check holds the member's reservation.
