What is the Walker Betterment Club????

The Walker Betterment Club was founded in March 2006 as a non-profit organization dedicated to improving and promoting the Walker community. Its membership is open to any citizen of Walker and the surrounding area. Yearly dues are $15 per person or $25 per couple. Catalyst, a print newsletter mailed to all households with a Walker zipcode, will be published as needed to inform people of Walker events and WBC activities.

WBC Needs You!

Because we are a small organization, we are always looking for new members. If you live in the Walker Community and want to get active, please consider joining the WBC. Our meetings are on the last Thursday of the month in the Community Room next to the Fire Station. 

Community Events

Upcoming Community Events:

Please see the calendar for community events.  We are somewhat limited on the information we can post on the calendar, so you might also check the new "Community Events" page.

If you have a non-profit, community based event you'd like to share, please send the information to informwbc@yahoo.com to be included on this site.  Please remember we are a volunteer organization and will do our best to post this info in a timely manner.  Not responsible for errors.
