The Pomeroy Men’s Club Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving Pomeroy and the local community. The club raises funds and provides volunteers for social events, community betterment projects, and many other needs. Some popular events are the Alumni Basketball Tournament, Bratfest, and hosting a concert during Pomeroy Homecoming. The club has a Board of Directors who meet monthly, and an assembly of other members ready to help volunteer when events are organized.
 
The Pomeroy Men’s Club was originally established in 1989, and operated successfully until lack of members caused them to become inactive in the early 2000’s. In 2023, the club was revived as the Pomeroy Men’s Club Foundation. Despite the name, all persons wanting to fulfill their civic duty to the town are welcome to join. Those interested in becoming a member should email us at pomeroymensclub@gmail.com.
 

The S.A.K. Club was organized in 1899 and federated in 1901. Pomeroy became a study club member in 1918 and although we are no longer federated, we still meet monthly.  Although many of the meetings occur in Pomeroy, sometimes the venue takes the members to nearby communities to experience something new. The S.A.K. Club presently has seventeen members.

 

Each month assigned members are responsible for presenting a program that promotes the purpose of the organization, which is “Searching After Knowledge. S.A.K.”  The meeting always begins with recitation of the Club Collect and “Roll Call” when the members are asked to share something that relates to the program that will be presented at the meeting. Club dues are used for community projects including adopting a needy family in the community at Christmas time and help provide gifts and food for the holidays. S.A.K. members also periodically donate to a local food pantry. They have donated to local fundraising projects and school projects and have even given scholarships to graduates in years past. The organization is far less structured than in previous years, but the members still leave each meeting having learned something new.  Anyone from Pomeroy and the surrounding communities is welcome to join the S.A.K. Club. For more information regarding who to contact to join this organization, please call the City Clerk at City Hall.
