On February 4, 1958, eighteen women interested in organizing a woman’s club met at the home of Mrs. C. Crowell Squire in McLean, Virginia. The club installed Squire as its first President on March 11, 1958 and the group became a member of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) on April 18, 1958.
Throughout its existence, the club has provided service to the McLean community through volunteer activities and financial support. Their biggest event is an annual Holiday Homes Tour and Boutique held each December. The club has published cook books, hosted fashion and talent shows, supported and financially contributed to the development of the McLean Community Center, granted scholarships to local high school students, and sponsored various other fundraising events and community projects.
The Woman’s Club of McLean Papers consists of .5 linear feet and spans the years 1994-2017 and contains newsletters, programs, brochures, lists, and ticket books. Subjects include the annual Holiday Homes Tour and general history of the club.
