Our club's steering committee is comprised 100% of member volunteers.  We serve a 13-month term from October to November and meet once a month to discuss club business. We are responsible for putting on all the hosted member events, facilitating the playgroups, working with advertisers, developing community partnerships, spreading the word about the club, and managing the annual budget, We are open to feedback, ideas, and help! 

Reach out any time using the emails listed below or our personal emails - we want to hear from you. Or, come to a meeting to share your thoughts in person- check the club calendar for more information about when and where our steering committee meetings are held. They are open to all members.  Email the secretary if you would like to add an item to the meeting agenda.


 Welcome to the Castro Valley Parents Club! We hope that you will join the club to take advantage of the wide variety of events for parents, kids, and families that we offer throughout the year. Our mighty community of families in and around Castro Valley comes together for fun, service,  learning, and to support each other in person and virtually. As co-directors, we work hard to ensure high quality, relevant offerings, and responsiveness to our community's needs.  We welcome your suggestions and feedback.
