A Message From Our President, Suzanne . . . . . .

ATTENTION ALL COOKS! Did you know we still have some cook books for sale? For $15 they would make a nice birthday present or a Bridal Shower gift, etc. Contact Di-ane Jankowski, 343-9069 if you are interest in buying one (or two!).

Summer has arrived along with fun, sun and Newcomers’ “Good Times”. We had 51 members and guests attend the luncheon at the Madonna Inn on June 23. Thanks to Diane Jankowski for her work on the luncheon and tak-ing over when I was unable to attend due to illness. Diane tells me that Doug Jenzen’s presentation was great and enjoyed by everyone. Carol Bowen has not only been busy creating our monthly Newsletter, she has planned a trip to Santa Barbara to attend a Polo Match at the Santa Bar-bara Polo and Racquet Club on July 17. Tickets are $12.59 per person for general admission, which includes admission for the day, parking, free wine tasting, and seating in the grandstands. Checks must be received by July 7th. Contact Carol Bowen at 343-2627 in you want more information. Linda Cohen has been working on our Annual Picnic. It will be at the Black Lake Community Room on Saturday, August 27th. The picnic is al-ways fun and an opportunity to visit with both old and new members. Our next luncheon will be September 22 at the Apple Farm. Anne Boyd has arranged for Dr. Craig Russell to be the guest speaker. He is a Profes-sor of Musicology and Ethnomusicology at Cal Poly, a composer, and au-thor. His latest book is “From Serra to Sancho: Music and Pageantry in the California Missions.” Watch for a future flyer with more information. The overnight trip to Cambria Pines Lodge on December 1 is very popular. The Camria Christmas Market will be open along with the Christmas light display. We had reserved 23 rooms and only one is still open. Once it is gone, the only rooms available will be suites. If you would like to join us, call Suzanne Miller at 805-929-8174. Our next Board Meeting will be July 14 at the home of Margaret Arich. If you would like to attend, call Margaret at 270-4470 to RSVP. Hope to see everyone at the Polo Match.
