My husband of 35 years, Joe, and I moved to Columbus from Indianapolis in October 2021.
I found this group on my 3rd day in town!
We are the parents of 2 adult daughters; the oldest, Lydia, lives in Indy, the youngest, Hanna, is married and lives in central Michigan.
I enjoy sewing and have a small business, making custom purses and bags, with Lydia.
I am enjoying the community, especially the people and the ability to get anywhere in town in 10 minutes.
Jenny Smillie
Secretary and Social Media
Hello! I moved to Columbus in 2020 from Greenwood, Indiana with my husband, two boys and two cats. I am originally from Springfield, Illinois. I have a wide range of interests including cooking and baking. I love the active, small time feeling of Columbus and have enjoyed making my home here.

Special Interest Group Coordinator
My husband and I are from Wisconsin but moved to the Carolinas 11 years ago to get away from bad Wisconsin winters! But, it was time for us to move closer as I missed family time as they are all still in Wisconsin. We did a little research on Columbus and southern Indiana in April 2022, and made the leap to move here in July 2022! We’ve been very happy with how friendly people are here. I’ve really enjoyed activities with the Newcomers Group and what a truly welcoming & fun experience it has been!
