It's a club with no dues, no fundraising campaigns, no secret handshake. The only requirement is your first name must be Lois. That's right, it's a club totally made up of those given that name.

The Lois Club was created in Minneapolis in 1979 and is now worldwide. In Las Vegas, there is a Lois Club that meets in Summerlin. It began January 2001 with its first meeting at the Country Inn on Rainbow Boulevard, now Memphis Championship Barbecue. About 13 people attended that first meeting. Now the group extends its membership to 49 people of all ages and from all parts of the valley.
