SPRING HIGHLIGHTS

Toga Party!  Our end of the year Toga Party celebrated Greek goddesses and our wonderful outgoing officers. All attendees played the part by wearing togas, and flowers or crowns. A delicious Greek dinner was provided, and we installed our new officers. A great time was had by all!


​Breakfast Club - We met for breakfast at Lynn’s in Huntington Beach.



Book Club  - Our Book Club met in June at Carlita’s lovely waterfront home in Newport Beach. We discussed Where the Wind Leads by Vinh Chung. Everyone contributed to dinner (authentic Vietnamese cuisine).​
