I joined the American Women's Club and also the American Society while working in London about 4 years ago. Unfortunately, for me it was a waste of money! I worked long hours and then had to commute a long distance on top of that, so I never had time to participate in any of the activities. I never went to ANY of them - not because I didn't want to, but due to a sheer lack of time on my part.
I did receive a monthly newsletter with all the activities for the American Women's Club - looked like mainly a social club, lots of fun things to do, but geared mainly toward the "ladies who lunch" brigade. Weekends were the only time I had free, and they never had anything planned then!
I was a member of both clubs for one year, and didn't renew my membership when asked. I think it would've been more useful when we first moved to England and I wasn't working, and was looking to establish some friendships.
