Community Beautification
The Hazel Woman's Club has done many things to help the community of Hazel. We were responsible for coordinating the efforts and helped raise money for the playground equipment in the City Park. The Club also provided the 'Welcome to Hazel' sign on Main Street. Other projects have included donating money to help the City buy new trash receptacles, putting new windows in the Community Center and purchasing tables for the Community Center.

Janie Story Memorial Scholarship
Each year the Hazel Woman's Club presents a scholarship to a Hazel area high school student that will be attending Murray State University. This scholarship, awarded annually in May, was renamed in 1985 after the loss of Janie Story, one of the Club's charter members.

Fish Pond
Club members, with the help of husbands, boyfriends, sons and others, build a fishing pond at the West Kentucky Boat & Outdoor Show. Kids, young and old, have a great time trying to catch a variety of fish. The Club accepted donations.

Annual Senior Citizen Luncheon
Every year in May, the Hazel Woman's Club has a luncheon for Hazel area seniors at the Community Center. The Club prepares and serves the food. Additionally area businesses provide door prizes and the Club gives all the seniors a goodie bag.

Christmas Decorating Contest
For several years, the Hazel Woman's Club has sponsored an outdoor decorating contest for the residents of Hazel. Prizes are awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd Places.

KFWC/GFWC Events
Club members have the opportunity to attend the First District Fall Conference and Summer Workshop each year. Each year in late spring, KFWC holds the State Convention and the GFWC Annual Convention is in the summer. These events are fun and informative and give club members the chance to network and learn.
