Check the schedule on page 2 for the time

and date that you work. You don’t want to

miss our first fundraiser of the year! We

always have such an enjoyable time selling

plants, talking with friends and smiling - a

lot.

You can be sure Margy Arthur has arranged

wonderful programs for us to enjoy at our

meetings. Last year’s programs were unde-

niably enlivening. So of course we have a

great beginning in September with our very

own Esther Kenyon telling us aboaut the

Seal Beach Performing Arts.

Our new Year Book is hot off the press and

ready for inspection. Make sure you thank

Twyla, Margy, Sylvia and Christa for all their

hard work. They did a superb job.

Welcome to our three new members, Peggy

Keller, Esther Kenyon and Linda Pearlman.

Here’s to “new Beginnings”, a new year,

new programs and new friends. It’s magic.

“And suddenly you know….it’s time to start some-

thing new and trust the magic of beginnings.”

Unknown

It is that time of year again, a time to see old

and new friends, stories to be shared of days

apart and plans for “new beginnings”. This

year we’ll have some gentle and exciting

changes. As you know, Standing Ovations

closed its doors this summer and though we’ll

miss them for sure, I am very excited about the

replacement Donna Dominguez and Barbara

Wright found. Barbara will be telling you all

about it soon. Marilyn Bittle and Patty Big-

gerstaff will share the needed, yet delightful

changes in the Laughlin Trip for this April.

Thank you all for all your devoted and challeng-

ing work.

Although our plant sale, coming up soon on

September 10 and 11 will remain pretty much

the same, I think we’ll see some big overall

changes in the Seal Beach Arts & Crafts Faire

itself.

Plants for the Plant Sale should be delivered to our booth at the pier by 7:00 a.m. Please

stay with your car at the curb and someone will come to help you carry your plants.

Thursday, September 1st we will discuss the book The Ship of Brides by Jojo Moyes

The year is 1946, and all over the world, young women are the seas in the thousands en route to the

men they married in wartime - and an unknown future. In Sydney, Australia, four women join 650

other bride on an extraordinary voyage to England, aboard the HMS Victoria, which also carries not

just arms and aircraft but 1000 naval officers and men. Rues of honour, duty, and separation are

strictly enforced. But the men and the brides will find their lives intertwined never imagined.

Please arrive at 11:45 a.m. on the first Wednesday except

July and August.

Game starts promptly at 12:15 p.m. Bring your lunch, if

library. Regrets Only:

Page 2 Woman’s Club of Seal Beach

The Seal Beach Community of Per-

forming Arts Association was

formed as a non-profit organiza-

tion in 2014 with a mission to pro-

mote numerous cultural activities,

i.e., drama (Shakespeare in the

Park, dance, instrumental con-

certs, dance, vocal recitals, chil-

dren's music education, opera,

etc., through an annual concert

series. The premise behind estab-

lishing SBCPAA is not only to bring

cultural activities to Seal Beach

and surrounding communities, but also

to establish that investment in the arts

and cultural is an essential part of

community identity. We believe the

fine Arts bring people together in a

common, uplifting experience and cre-

ate a more vibrant way of life and a

community where people want to live

and work, congregate, own a business,

and contribute to the economic vitality

of their city. We are pleased to bring

this new activity to the City of Seal

Beach.
