Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake MOMS Club® & Annual Preschool Fair

By Katharine Weis January 11, 2017
The Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake MOMS Club® (Moms Offering Moms Support) is a local chapter of an international non-profit organization, a registered 501 (C) (3). Our chapter provides opportunities to share activities with other mothers and children in the Ballston Lake, Burnt Hills, Charlton, Glenville, and Scotia areas. 


Our goals are:
  • To provide a support group for mothers who choose to stay at home to raise their children; 
  • To provide a forum for topics of interest to mothers; and 
  • To help children in the community
  • To perform a number of service projects to enrich our community and help needy children.  

We are guided by the following principles: 
  • That women must be free to choose their personal path to fulfillment
  • That for women who choose it, raising children is an important and fulfilling full-time job
  • That, a family's decision for a mother to stay at home to raise the children often involves considerable financial sacrifice.
  • That there is no one right way to raise children, but our members have a common concern in raising their children in a healthful way. 


We invite you to join one of our chapter’s largest community events, the Annual Preschool Fair. It will be held on Saturday, January 14, 2017, from 9am-12pm at the Burnt Hills United Methodist Church located at 816 Route 50, Burnt Hills, NY. We will have over 25 area preschools and children’s enrichment organizations present for parents to speak with regarding their programs and classes. We also publish a directory with the contact information of each attending preschool/organization.
